lyrics

Cried like you wanted, so young and carefree
Moments like these are suspended in memory
Drunken, I slipped on those three fucking words
Oh, how I wish that you had not heard

Do I still never cease to amaze you?
Is it I who still frequents your dreams?
Do you still ache for the touch of my hand?
Are you still bursting at the seams?

Open the book
Tear out the page
Kindle the flame
Burn you away

“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
I’m burning this Little Black Book of your Lies

Quivering lips and a lump in my throat
Thank you for showing a sadness I’ve never known
Noise in my ears, a new dark to my eyes
Oh, how you’ve drained all my love for life

How foolish it was to pursue these dreams
The dreams of our subconscious mind
Guess you won’t shout it from the rooftops
I guess it was a matter of time

Open the book
Tear out the page
Kindle the flame
Burn you away

“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
I’m burning this Little Black Book of your Lies

Will memories release me?
How long ‘til I’m set free?
Tear out my heart and bare my soul
I will never be, never be whole

You once told me I was winter’s night
Crisp, cold stars in the sky, shining bright

(Did you not once tell me)
Did you not tell me that someone once told you to
(Take not stars for granted)
Take not the stars for granted
(For there will always be)
For there will always be overcast nights to make
(Skies a little more dead)
The skies a little more dead

Tell the lie that it’s okay
‘Cause I’d believe every word that you say
Guess I ended up with more
Than what I bargained for

Our fears turned out to have some justification
Now we’re without any proper explanation
I’m not myself when I’m stranded on my own
You went away; now I’m doomed to be alone

Say the word and I’ll be there
‘Cause I cannot recall the scent of your hair
Even after all this time
You’re always on my mind

Open the book
Tear out the page
Kindle the flame
Burn you away

“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
“More and more, over and over again…”
(You said you fell for me)
“I am yours,” you told me, “Until the end…”
(Kindle the flame, burn you away)
I’m burning this Little Black Book of your Lies

“Whatever it takes…”
“Whatever it takes…” Liar
“Whatever it takes…” Lies
“Whatever it takes…” Liar
“Whatever it takes…” You lied
