Somehow in it for the chase
so I run away
I run like hell, don't think

for a second that I wasn't prepared
Strange you never did do ask
why I always wore my winter coat

For times like these when
I'm forced out running in the snow


All I asked for was the naked truth
Was too much for you to handle
Was too much for me to ask

Every time that you fake a smile
Play the martyr in the play
Of the story about you and I


Some days everything is
red like roses without thorns

Loves me loves me not,
soft petals slowly hit the floor
Are we supposed to spit it out

until there's nothing left to break
It's over now this is the end
and you better understand


Are we supposed to spit it out?
Until there's nothing left to break


Send a message that is loud and clear
A message that's so simple

That even you can hear
They say it took you two whole days
To find happiness again on the lips

of another man
