lyrics

I tried to do the right thing
tried to make you see
that nothing really matters
but you and me

I think it’s safe to say now
you didn’t feel the same
you ran off with another
with whats-his-name

I’ve waited hours and hours and hours
every night
as long as you’re happy
I guess it’s alright

you were the only one I needed
the best I had
but love on a one-way track
is kind of sad

I didn’t stop and focus
on the state of play
you caught me unprepared
when you walked away

I’ve been drowning and drowning and drowning
in bottles of wine
as long as you’re happy
everything’s fine

the clocks have all stopped ticking
since I saw you last
the hands have frozen up since
the moment past

I’m torn and I am broken
a gutless shell
a nicotine stain
of my former self

I’m lost and out of balance
searching for the light
in the darkness of remorse
and shattered pride

absolution won’t be granted
till the day has come
when the moment of you slips
into oblivion

you’re killing me, killing me, killing me everyday
but as long as you’re happy
I guess it’s ok
