Ever Since

Every time the morning comes

The wall is always higher

Desire stands still

Every time you try to be awake

The see-through smile reminds you

That your place is in the darkened room

With a girl who'd never speak to you

Oh, how you miss her

And you know she feels the same

Can you name your fear?

Can you look her in the eye?

Can you feel she's near?

Or is she just a plague in your mind?

Ever since you've dreamed of love

The spite has gotten stronger

This game is too wicked for you

The burden in your heart

Won't hide the bruises on her skin

Dancing in the crimson room

With the girl who never rejected you

Oh, how you love her

And she has to feel the same

Can you name your fear?

Can you look her in the eye?

Can you feel she's near?

Or is she just a plague in your mind?

Good riddance to your beauty

Your life's been good to you

I'm trying to change

But it's getting more painful every day

Good riddance to your beauty

You life's been good to you

I'm trying to change

But it's getting more painful every day

While you're alive! Alive!

They need more security

They need more protection

They need to be in charge

They need more placebo

It is so unitive when you have the one to claim

But it's not constant - it's just a part of change

It feels so hollow if there is no-one to blame

And the way I see it's you or me

So it's you who has to die

Good riddance to your beauty

Your life's been good to you

I'm trying to change

But it's getting more painful every day

While you're alive

Good riddance to your beauty

Your life's been good to you

I'm trying to change

But it's getting more painful

Good riddance to your beauty

Your life's been good to you

But it's getting more painful every day

While you're alive!
