Lyrics

[00:04.58] by Blindside
[00:08.05]
[00:15.91] As I recall with my stomach turning
[00:18.77] I was hiding away from myself
[00:21.72] Away from you
[00:24.15] Like nothing
[00:25.14] Though something was terribly wrong
[00:30.34] And I admit that I was only waiting for the right time
[00:34.69] Night time
[00:35.82] the right moment for you to look away
[00:38.82] Though you never did, I pretended for a while
[00:41.38] So I could walk where I don't belong
[00:44.54]
[00:45.07] And I remember every word you said
[00:48.84] Come back in time, come back
[00:52.15] And I remember I would soon be dead
[00:56.17] Now so pitiful, so pitiful
[01:00.80]
[01:05.93] But I know
[01:07.89] As I hammered those nails into your beautiful hands
[01:11.70] Your eyes still try to search for mine
[01:16.34] But I look away
[01:19.37]
[01:21.30] Now your eyes are the only thing that can save me
[01:25.45] I'm still so afraid of them piercing
[01:28.52] Youre breaking into my prison,
[01:30.86] Just pretended for a while
[01:32.42] My soul is dying
[01:34.43] I won't look away
[01:36.10]
[01:36.34] And I remember every word you said...
[01:39.73] Come back in time, come back
[01:43.10] And I remember I would soon be dead
[01:47.01] Now so pitiful, so pitiful
[01:52.99] Pitiful, so pitiful ...
[02:00.52] Pitiful, so pitiful ...
[02:07.72]
[02:12.53] I'll remember every word you said
[02:16.13] This time I won't look away
[02:19.54] I'll remember every word you said
[02:23.27] This time I won't look away
[02:26.15]
[02:27.00] I'll remember every word you said
[02:30.70] Come back in time, come back
[02:34.22] And I remember I would soon be dead
[02:37.30] Now so pitiful, so pitiful
[02:41.51] I'll remember every word you said
[02:44.20] Pitiful, so pitiful
[02:51.14] Pitiful, so pitiful...
[03:01.29]
