lyrics

What did I do?
I just assumed that nothing was wrong.
I went along on my path, to the bar or some other grand objective as a metaphor.

What did you do?
You turned around, directed a smack at the back of my head.
It’s not that you don’t love me, but fights like these never seem to be fair.

And I know,
although you may disagree,
that you hate to love me.
But I tend to believe that you ain’t that naïve.
Everything’s yours now I know that you’re mine.
Let’s just pretend that everything’s fine.
Fine.

And now what’s left, is to decide whether this makes us slip over and fall.
Is this all? Is this everything that this was ever gonna be?

I guess I’ll see, because time is the only way to find it out in the end.
We depend on each other just as much as we believe that we do.

And I know,
although you may disagree,
that you hate to love me.
But I tend to believe that you ain’t that naïve.
Everything’s yours now I know that you’re mine.
Let’s just pretend that everything’s fine.
Fine.

Every time we dance my feet aren’t right
and I see in your eyes what I try to deny.
My timing is off and my feet aren’t right
And I see in your eyes what I try to deny
And every time I fucking die.

And I know,
although you may disagree,
that you hate to love me.
But I tend to believe that you ain’t that naïve.
Everything’s yours now I know that you’re mine.
Let’s just pretend that everything’s fine.
Fine.
