stories and alibies lyrics

my eyes burn from these tears
youd think you'd learn over these years
good things won't last forever

so what the hell am I supposed to do
you only wanted the things I couldn't give to you
and you had it all anyway

(chorus)
so take, take everything
and leave me scarmbling
reaching for something that wasn't there
in the first place
(repeat)

tell me I'm wrong when I say
I can't expect you to spend forever with me

I live for that single moment

I take back everything I said
you wore those words on your lips
as if they meant anything anyway

sometimes I feel I can drop off the face of the earth
it seems I do more harm than good
I don't know if it's worth me loosing sleep over this

chorus (2x)
