lyrics

My oh my
On the subject of time
And the wounds it should heal
Yet it still seems to feel
Like a fall from grace
Love completely erased
Is it always this way
Although you cannot stay
Go on now
You must be gone now
Leave me here all alone
Please go off on your own
Tell me goodbye
But I will not cry
Despite all the bad memories
I'm not here to make enemies

You
And I
Can't go on
Living this lie
Cursed by love
What can one do
When they're trapped by you
All this while
We couldn't care
But we didn't dare
To try and go on
To try and go out
And let ourselves free
From the results of our
Faulty company

So we just move on
Darling just move on
Fight through the weather
Come on it gets better
So we just move on
Darling just move on
Fight through the weather
Come on it gets better

We tried the best that anyone can
Just did not have the greatest of plans
So when we we take a further look back
All we can see are the giant cracks
We both said our love would last forever
Not knowing it meant time spent together
No point to do it over again
Now you and I are off in the wind
There was a wall that we couldn't break
There was some love that we couldn't fake
Given some time to look at what was
I am still thankful for it because
I should believe in falling in love
Although now there's no love to speak of
It means that there was love that we shared
And that at one point you must've cared
I should believe in falling in love
Although now there's no love to speak of
It means that there was love that we shared
And that at one point you must've cared
