Faded away like the color in a blue sky at the end of the day
Night falls and the search begins for something
Something better than this
CHORUS:
A scream or a cry, the truth or a lie
I'm not sure they will save us this time
I don't wanna be around when it all comes down
To watch something beautiful die
You said, the only way was to run away
You're sick of me
So you just can't stick around to hear me pleading (I'm pleading)
Does it show?
I'm pathetic, I know
I just can't stand here and watch you go
I'm running after you (I'm running after you)
Helpless, cause my hands are tied
Eyelids pinned back so they're open wide
In a theatre
All alone on the front row to watch something beautiful die
Chorus
What happened to the things that we used to do?
You said it's all the same and that you need a change
You left without goodbye and now I'm wondering why
But I don't think I want to know all the things that he does better
And how the past just doesn't matter
You left me once, but this time will be the last time
You said, the only way was to run away
You're sick of me
So you just can't stick around to hear me pleading (I'm pleading)
Does it show?
I'm pathetic, I know
I just can't stand here and watch you go
I'm running after you (I'm running after you)
Look for the feeling that we lost
Where did you have it last?
Maybe if we retrace our steps
But we can't find the path that led us here to where we stand
Face to face to watch this bitter end
Now something beautiful is dead
