It's such a long way down
If you want to go
This is all for pretend
Just a game 'til the end
I thought that you would want to know

It's such a strong deafening sound
Standing in your afterglow
But I'm gaining my speed
As I run from your disease
But it's seemingly impossible

I walk the high wire like an acrobat
I can't fake anymore
So just walk away and live with that
If I could just make you see
Then maybe you would start to believe

Chorus:
Try to wash all this pain away but you can't push it down
Try to stay away again but you can't send it out
Forget about the lies that you never wanted to tell
That's over now, it's all over now

Such a perfect flower
With such indicative style
And a scent that you cannot forget
But maybe if you hold it in, 
Just for a little while
You could learn to live the kind of life
You wanted to live

If I had told you that I needed more
Than you could give
Would you turn right around and ask what for?
If I could just make you see
Then maybe you would start to believe

(Chorus)

Bridge:
Left you here again 
With no one there to pick you up, no friends
You didn't believe anything that I had said
And now our moment slipped away with the wind
I cannot pretend to be

It's such a long, long way down
If you want to go
This was all for pretend
Welcome to the end
I thought that you would want to know
Yeah

Chorus:
Try to wash all this pain away but you can't push it down
Try to stay away again but you can't send it out
Forget about the lies that you never wanted to tell
That's over now, it's all over now

Outro:
I was there when you wanted me to
You were here for your own good
I've heard everything that you've had to say
It's just never enough to make me stay
It's over now
It's all over now
