It started almost perfect
No way that I could word it
I guess the words are worthless
If we're no longer speaking
At night I dreamed in color
Now I don't even bother
I guess the dreams are wasted
If we're no longer dreaming
Forcing me to change
A shadow of who I used to be
I'm sorry I couldn't be
Whatever it is you wanted
Pick up the broken pieces
Of my fractured being
I guess I'll keep on trying
Keep trying until I get it right
But you're so sadistic
I'll never get it right
I know I'll never get it right
Never get it right
The silence cuts so deeply
Your absence haunts completely
I guess the tears are pointless
If you're no longer near me
The nights are getting longer
My heart is growing stronger
I guess I'll find my own way
Since you no longer need me
Forcing me to change
A shadow of who I used to be
Forcing me to change
A shadow of who I used to be
I'm sorry I couldn't be
Whatever it is you wanted
Pick up the broken pieces
Of my fractured being
I guess I'll keep on trying
Keep trying until I get it right
But you're so sadistic
I'll never get it right
In the ruins, I'll find a way
To heal the wounds, to light the day
The echoes of your voice will fade
I'll rise again, no longer afraid
I'm sorry I couldn't be
Whatever it is you wanted
Pick up the broken pieces
Of my fractured being
I guess I'll keep on trying
Keep trying until I get it right
But you're so sadistic
I'll never get it right
