The last thing I wanna do right now is read your stupid poetry Why can't you just tell me what you really wanna say? You'd clear your conscience with words so weak and empty But something in your eyes gave you away And i've been lonely like a silhouette or a serenade A heart attack or a man betrayed The arms of love are holding me like a silhouette or a serenade Is this all you have to say this broken boy would hang on every word You tell me that you need me while I slowly fall apart You'd heal your heartache with words so cool and callous But the absence of your tears gave you away And I've been lonely like a silhouette or a serenade A heart attack or a man betrayed The arms of love are holding me like a silhouette or a serenade And all pretty poems have to end So I say this before I leave If words are your weapons my dear I surrender, surrender And I've been lonely like a silhouette or a serenade A heart attack or a man betrayed The arms of love are holding me to you
