[00:00.43] |
I couldn't take it couldn't stand another minute |
[00:02.40] |
Couldn't bear another day without you in it |
[00:04.50] |
All of the joy that I had known in my life |
[00:06.80] |
Was stripped away from me the minute that you died |
[00:09.12] |
To have you in my life was all I ever wanted |
[00:11.51] |
But now without you I'm a soul forever haunted |
[00:13.60] |
Can't help but feel that I had taken you for granted |
[00:15.79] |
No way in hell that I can ever comprehend this |
[00:17.81] |
I wasn't dreaming when they told me you were gone |
[00:20.31] |
I was wide awake and feeling that they had to be wrong |
[00:22.41] |
How could you leave me when you swore that you would stay |
[00:24.89] |
Now I'm trapped inside a nightmare every single thing day |
[00:26.97] |
It's like a movie but there's not a happy ending |
[00:29.17] |
Every scene fades black and there's no pretending |
[00:31.70] |
This little fairy tale doesn't seem to end well |
[00:33.78] |
There's no knight in shining armor who will wake me from the spell |
[00:36.95] |
I know you didn't plan this |
[00:41.72] |
You tried to do what's right |
[00:45.09] |
But in the middle of this madness |
[00:50.04] |
I'm the one you left to win this fight |
[01:03.53] |
Red like roses |
[01:08.29] |
Fills my head with dreams and finds me |
[01:11.98] |
Always closer |
[01:17.25] |
To the emptiness and sadness |
[01:19.46] |
That has come to take the place of you |
[01:22.53] |
I know you’re broken down by anger and by sadness; |
[01:24.38] |
You feel I left you in a world that’s full of madness |
[01:27.16] |
Wish I could talk to you, if only for a minute; |
[01:29.19] |
Make you understand the reasons why I did it |
[01:31.04] |
I wanna tell you that you’re all that ever mattered; |
[01:33.61] |
Want you to know that, for eternity, I’m shattered |
[01:35.85] |
I tried so hard just to protect you, but I failed to |
[01:38.13] |
And in a prison of abandonment I’ve jailed you |
[01:40.39] |
I never planned that I would leave you there alone |
[01:42.52] |
I was sure that I would see you when I made it back home |
[01:44.87] |
And all the times I swore that it would be okay; |
[01:47.03] |
Now I’m nothing but a liar, and you're thrown into the fray |
[01:49.24] |
This bedtime story ends with misery ever after |
[01:51.55] |
The pages are torn, and there’s no final chapter |
[01:53.85] |
I didn’t have a choice, I did what I had to do; |
[01:56.08] |
I made a sacrifice, but forced a bigger sacrifice on you |
[01:59.67] |
I know you've lived a nightmare; |
[02:03.14] |
I caused you so much pain |
[02:08.08] |
But, baby, please don’t do what I did; |
[02:11.59] |
I don’t want you to waste your life in vain |
[02:24.96] |
Red like roses |
[02:30.39] |
Fills my head with dreams and finds me |
[02:35.04] |
Always closer |
[02:39.70] |
To the emptiness and sadness |
[02:41.82] |
That has come to take the place of you |
[02:45.34] |
You’re not the only one who needed me; I thought you understood |
[02:49.49] |
You were the one I needed, and you left me as I always feared you would |
[02:53.85] |
Would I change it if I could? |
[02:58.04] |
It doesn’t matter how |
[03:00.22] |
The petals scatter now |
[03:02.06] |
Every nightmare just discloses |
[03:04.69] |
It’s your blood that’s red like roses |
[03:07.06] |
And no matter what I do |
[03:08.93] |
Nothing ever takes the place of you |
[03:39.78] |
Red like roses |
[03:43.82] |
Fills my head with dreams and finds me |
[03:47.85] |
Always closer |
[03:52.99] |
To the emptiness and sadness |
[03:54.98] |
That has come to take the place of you |
