Lyrics

I know what you're doing, I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears
You really had me going, wishing on a star
But the black holes that surround you are heavier by far
I believed in your confusion, you were so completely torn
It must've been that yesterday was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine, there's nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious, you have to ask me why
I say goodbye
'Cause I am barely breathing and I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, it's worth the price, the price that I would pay, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everyone keeps asking, what's it all about?
I used to be so certain and I can't figure out
What is this attraction? I only feel the pain
Nothing left to reason and only you to blame
Will it ever change?
'Cause I am barely breathing and I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, it's worth the price, the price that I would pay, yeah, yeah, yeah
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
Come to find, I may never know
Your changing mind, is it friend or foe?
I rise above or sink below
With every time, you come and go
Please don't come and go
'Cause I am barely breathing, I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, it's worth the price, the price that I would pay, yeah, yeah, yeah
But I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
I know what you're doing
I see it all too clear
