Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just watch the sunrise
On the other side of town
Once more I've waited
And once more you've let me down
[Verse 2]
This would be a perfect time
For me to die
So I'd like to take this opportunity
To cry
[Verse 3]
You gave your word
Now I return it to you
With this suggestion as to what
You can do
[Verse 4]
Just exchange the words, I love you
To goodbye
While I take this opportunity
To cry
[Verse 5]
I'd like to see you but I'm afraid
I don't know wrong from right
And if I saw you, would I kiss you
Or wanna kill you the side?
[Verse 6]
It's been a long night
So I think I'll go home
And feed my nightmares
They've been waiting all night long
[Verse 7]
They'll be the last ones to tell me
Goodbye
They'll give me many opportunities
To cry
