lyrics

Oh I'm not content with losing sleep
Staying up all night because I couldn't keep
And if I fail again I'll have to try to find a way to live without you
Late night phone calls and insincere
falsification of the facts that led us here
With fear in your eyes
You're always surprised that I can be just fine without you.
And you already know
That it goes to show that everytime you bring me down you got me singing

Let's go up, so I can burn it down in flames
There's nothing left for me here anyway
You couldn't have it all so you stabbed me in the back.
See I just wanted to spend my life with no one else but you by my side
But I can't hold onto what's not mine and now I know it's time to let you go

Oh and maybe flip a switch like you claim and everything just turns the black in your brain and you take it out on me it's just that easy
How does it feel like to know that lately everything is in your hands and if you feel like sucking up it's your choice and I have nothing to say that can change your mind
Well here's a thought for you
What went wrong in your head
I can't forget what you said
You think I'm better off dead

And everytime you bring me down you got me singing
so let's go up, so I can burn it down in flames
There's nothing left for me here anyway
You couldn't have it all so you stabbed me in the back.
See I just wanted to spend my life with no one else but you by my side
But I can't hold onto what's not mine and now I know it's time to let you go

All I needed was a chance to see this through, but you would never let that happen, how could you let me believe that our love was true
and walk away in such delicate fashion
All I needed was a chance to see this through, but you would never let that happen, how could you let me believe that our love was true

So let's go up
So I can burn it down in flames
There's nothing left for me here anyway
You couldn't have it all so you stabbed me in the back.
See I just wanted to spend my life with no one else but you by my side
But I can't hold onto what's not mine and now I know it's time to let you go

Oh I'm not content with losing sleep
Staying up all night because I couldn't keep
And if I fail again I'll never be with you
