Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't see through the tears in my eyes
I can't see through the tears in my eyes
I can't breathe
[Verse 2]
I feel I failed
I was meant to make you smile
I was meant to make you shine
To make you shine
[Verse 3]
They said
This could never happen
They said
We could never be
Are you telling me you listened?
[Verse 4]
I was meant to make you smile
I was meant to make you shine
I was meant to make you smile
I was meant to make you shine
I was meant to make you smile
I was meant to make you shine
[Verse 5]
So there's no you and me
And we can't live this way forever?
(You said you'd run away)
You said you'd run away
You said you'd run away with me
You'd run away
[Verse 6]
That we'd escape from the ordinary
That we'd escape from the world that tied us down
That we'd escape from the ordinary
That we'd escape from the world that kept us apart
[Verse 7]
So now, this is over and the world falls upon me
I never expected to be here alone
The shadows are forming as we burst into flames
Why does this end this way?
[Verse 8]
Why does this end this way?
