Swimming in the dark, we're bound to drift apart
And I just can't go on, pretending we're in love.
We play with matches in the rain but never learn
We try to light it but the fire never burns
You thought that love was just a casting call,
well its our turn to quit before the curtain falls
Don't need to pretend to love me, you don't need to pretend to want me,
You don't need to pretend to need me, we just never were meant to,
Am I wrong?
Am I right?
Have I lost my mind, lost my mind
Now I dance around her heart, like an actor plays the part.
I hit the stage and I get blinded by the light,
I read the script, but I just can't recite the lines
You thought that love was just a casting call,
well its our turn to quit before the curtain falls
Don't need to pretend to love me, we just never were meant to ever be,
You don't need to pretend to love me, we just never were meant to,
Am I wrong?
Am I right?
Have I lost my mind [x2]
So get on with your life 'cause we're just wasting time.
And I just can't go on, pretending we're in love.

Well, I looked at her face and then I knew she changed,
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
So I sat in my room for 27 days,
No she never called, I had something to say!
No she never called, I had something to say!
I don't know much and I don't know how...
Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner
Well, I heard she's great and her new boyfriend's lame,
She can go to hell I'll never be the same!
She can go to hell I'll never be the same!
And these open wounds will heal with time they say,
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
My heart turned black and then the sky turned gray!
I don't know much and I don't know how...
Why would she put me through such torture,
I would have given my life for her,
She was the one that knocked me over,
Now I'm alone sitting on the corner

Constant quick fixes, don't make no sense
Hop on bandwagons, you make me sick
Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
[x2]
Distant loud chuckles, keep me awake
Awkward instances won't make you hip
Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
[x2]
We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door
We've said this all before, your shadow's at the door
There's darkness in the hall and we won't take the fall!
And we won't take the fall!
Don't you tell me, what you think is right!
(When you're living in the shadows)
I can tell that, you have lost your sight!
(When you're living in the shadows)
