I never let love in
so I could keep my heart from hurting

Don't come looking for me
'Cause I'll be right here with the words you said
and looking for the words that you say
you know what you did you know
And how can anybody forget the promise that you made?
'Cause this is how a promise breaks
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof

Rewind to the first time
that I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
that I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies just say goodbye

And now you're running from me
so cool, so scared of what you might have said
and no one's ever looked away,
cause we know what you did, we know
If I told anybody, they would soon forget your name
and you would never have a place
I always knew you'd fall through
And now you're proof

Rewind to the first time
that I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
that I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies just say goodbye

Please don't say too much oh, I
think we've heard enough from you,
Oh

Rewind to the first time
that I felt it coming
I knew it would not last
Rewind to the first time
that I felt it coming
Make it quick, make it painless
Don't tell me lies just say goodbye
Don't tell me lies just say goodbye

Well I won't be the one to disappoint you, anymore
And I know I said all this so that you heard it all before
The trick is getting you to think that all this is your idea
And that it is everything you've ever wanted out of here

Love's not a competition, but I'm winning

I'm not sure what's truly altruistic anymore
Cuz every good that I do is listed, and your keeping score

Love's not a competition, but I'm winning
Well love's not a competition, but I'm winning
Or at least I thought I was
But there's no way of knowing
At least I thought I was
But there's no way of knowing

You know what it's like when you're new to the game
But I'm not

Well, I won't be the one to disappoint you
Well, I won't be the one to disappoint you, anymore

Close your eyes and make believe this is where you want to be
Forgetting all the memories, try to forget love cause love's forgotten me
Well hey, hey baby, it's never too late pretty soon you won't remember a thing
And I'll be distant, the stars reminiscing
Your heart's been wasted on me

You've never been so used as I'm using you, abusing you
My little decoy
Don't look so blue, you should've seen right through
I'm using you, my little decoy
My little decoy

Live your life inside a dream
Time is changing everything
Forgetting all the memories
And I'm forced into you just cause you're into me
Well hey, hey baby, it's never too late
When I'm gone you won't remember a thing
But I can't stay and you know I won't wait
I was gone from the very first day

You've never been so used as I'm using you, abusing you
My little decoy
Don't look so blue, you should've seen right through
I'm using you, my little decoy

Oh, oh.
I'm not sorry at all
I won't be sorry at all
I'd do it over again

And do you ever want me, do you ever need me?
I know you left before goodbye.
And it's okay, there's always another day.
And anytime you want me, anytime you see me
I don't think you meant to say goodbye
And it's okay, there's always another day.

Your voice comes in and now it's fading,
I can't believe this is so frustrating.
'Cause you never seem to understand
And you always slip straight through your hands
And how does it feel to be alone?

Help me come back down,
From high above the clouds.
You know I'm suffocating,
But I blame this town.
Why do I deny the things that burn inside?
Down deep, I'm barely breathing,
But you just see a smile.
And I don't want to let this go.
Really, I just want to know,

If I let you love me,
Be the one adored.
Would you go all the way?
Be the one I'm looking for.
If I let you love me,
Be the one adored.
Would you go all the way?
Be the one I'm looking for.

Damn,
Ain't it crazy
When you're love swept?
You'll do anything
For the one you love
'Cause anytime
That you needed me
I'd be there
It's like
You were my favorite drug
The only problem is
That you was using me
In a different way
Than I was using you
But now that I know
That it's not meant to be
You gotta go
I gotta wean myself off of you

How can I decide what's right
When you're clouding up my mind?
I can't win your losing fight
All the time.

Not gonna ever own what's mine
When you're always taking sides?
But you won't take away my pride.
No, not this time.
Not this time.

How did we get here?
When I used to know you so well.
But how did we get here?
Well, I think I know.

The truth is hiding in your eyes
And it's hanging on your tongue.
Just boiling in my blood.
But you think that I can't see
What kind of man that you are,
If you're a man at all.
Well, I will figure this one out
On my own.
(I'm screaming, "I love you so.")
On my own.
(My thoughts you can't decode)

How did we get here?
When I used to know you so well, yeah.
But how did we get here?
Well, I think I know.

Do you see what we've done?
We've gone and made such fools
Of ourselves.
Do you see what we've done?
We've gone and made such fools
Of ourselves.

How did we get here?
When I used to know you so well, yeah, yeah.
How did we get here?
Well, I used to know you so well.
I think I know.
I think I know.

There is something I see in you.
It might kill me.
I want it to be true.

Live in a secret
Live in a lie
Live in a dark hole
Beneath the black sky

Live like a martyr
And draw my last breath
Feel like an old man
With a knife in my chest

Live like a transient
Live like a thief
Hide in a closet
Grinding my teeth

Sit in a small room
With the walls closing in
Open the shutters
But everything's still dim

Payback
For all the things
I've done in my past

Payback
For everything
There are no take backs

I'm not the reason
It's not my fault
It's not my problem
I'm not the cause

I'm not your scapegoat
I'm not your god
I'm not your martyr
I'd leave you all

I just wanna play
I just wanna play a Game
One that you've never played before
One that you'll never play again
I'm sure
