Don't waste your time
Don't waste a minute
Believing in these wishful dreams

It never fit us well
And what at first was hard to tell
Became the sickness that directs me now


It's okay if you're awake when I come home
'Cause I need you to know

That every night I lie in bed
Trying hard to clear my head
And I pray that you see me

And how I look at you
When we are not together
And you'll never

Say the only words you could
To save yourself


Maybe you'll thank me when it's over
And maybe you'll never forgive me
We tell no lies

But secretly we hide
The silent truth of what could never be


It's okay if you're awake when I come home
'Cause I need you to know
That every night I lie in bed

Trying hard to clear my head
And I pray that you see me
And how I look at you

When we are not together
And you'll never
Say the only words you could

To save yourself
