Hold my breath and I'll count to ten I'm the paper and you're the pen You fill me in and you are permanent And you'll leave me to dry I'm a writer and she's the muse I'm the one that you always choose She will falter and gift her blame And it's starts all over again Again again again She is bright lights and cityscapes I'm white lies that care for gates And she'll take all you ever have But I'm gonna love you You say maybe it will last this time But I'm gonna love you You never have to ask I'm gonna love you 'Till you start looking back I'm gonna love you So right I wouldn't need a second chance Shield your eyes from the truth I end Tell me why it will be good again All those demons are closing in And I don't want you to burn Nevermind what I said before I don't want any less anymore You are carbon and I am flame I will rise and you will For bright lights and cityscapes And light signs, mascarades And she'll take all you ever have But I'm gonna love you Say maybe it will last this time But I'm gonna love you You never have to ask I'm gonna love you 'Till you start looking back I wouldn't need a second chance I wouldn't need a second chance I wouldn't need a second chance I wouldn't need a second chance
