I see that you forgot me
I see that you weren't there
I see that you deceived me
I see that you don't care
I see that it is over
I see I must move on
I see you didn't really love me
I see that I was wrong
Eh eh eh eh X (X3)
Marks the, X (X3)
Marks the...
Marks you
I see that you are lonely
I see you need my help
I see you wanna know me now
I say go know yourself
Eh eh eh eh X (X3)
Marks the, X (X3)
Marks the...
Marks me

Drifting
04:37

I'm drifting through the meadows
Got lost on my way back home
But I'm pretending, pretending I'm better
Because that's easier than telling the truth
Guess I'm wrong to joke
Wish I'd never spoke
Shut my stupid mouth
Stop the stuff (shit) from pouring out
I can't control my feelings
And I should cry out to stop you leavin'
Pretending that I'm tough
But it's not good enough
I'm not good enough
Drifting drifting drifting through the meadows
Lost my way (lost my way) (X2)
And I'm still drifting drifting drifting through my life
Without you (without you) (X2)
I'm drifting and I'm falling down
Don't know what you want from me
And I'm pretending to still be strong
Cos that's easier than admitting that I'm weak
Guess I'm wrong to joke
Wish I'd never spoke
Shut my stupid mouth
Stop the stuff (shit) from pouring out
I can't control my feelings
And I should cry out to stop you leavin'
Pretending that I'm tough
But it's not good enough
I'm not good enough
Drifting drifting drifting through the meadows
Lost my way (lost my way) (X2)
And I'm still drifting drifting drifting through my life
Without you (without you) (X2)
Instrumental
Drifting drifting drifting through the meadows
Gone far away (far away) (X2)
And you're still drifting drifting drifting through your life
Without me (without me) (X2)
Drifting drifting drifting through the meadows
Lost my way (lost my way) (X2)
And I'm still drifting drifting drifting through my life
Without you (without you) (X2)

Wait
03:43
|
|
||
You can take your time I'll wait for you
Suppose that’s all I can do
I'll be listening out for your call
Could you let me know when you’re coming home?
I'll leave the light on in the doorway
Pacing circles round the hallway
And I know
I should give it up
No use waiting up
For you
And every day's the same
Waiting to hear your name
Calling out in desperation and you take
The breath right out of me
Why wont you set me free? X2
I'm sick with worry when you’re out alone
Can you stay at home?
Or is that unfair of me to ask?
Would you let me know when you wanna go away?
You can tell me when I'm unwanted
Swear I'll disappear unprompted
And I'll stay
Away
Nothing left
To say
And every day's the same
Waiting to hear your name
Calling out in desperation and you take
The breath right out of me
Why wont you set me free? X2
I'm even searching for you when you're gone
Where did I go wrong?
Where did I go wrong?
But will you wait for me
Or will you set me free?
You can take your time I'll wait for you.

Lonely Being Lonely
03:46
|
|

ou look sad, you're so alone
And you've got no place to go
And it's lonely being lonely without you
About to cry, grab your tissues
Don't let the world know your issues
Because you're lonely being lonely without me
Makes no difference, right or wrong
We still have no place to belong
Stuck in a rut of being helpless
No one cares about the hopeless
But in dreams we'll find each other
Hold on to my hand now and forever
And ever and ever
Because I'm lonely being lonely without you
When you left I felt so sad
Never realised it was me who made you mad
And I'm sorry for making out like I didn't care
I could just say that I want you back
But I know you'd never fall for that
And I'm still lonely being lonely without you
Makes no difference, right or wrong
We still have no place to belong
Stuck in a rut of being helpless
No one cares about the hopeless
But in dreams we'll find each other
Hold on to my hand now and forever
And ever and ever
Because I'm lonely being lonely without-
No that's not what I wanted
No that's not how I planned it
Don't make it seem like I'm the villain here (villain here)
No that's not what I need
This never would've happened
If you'd've stayed
But you won't say
And you don't know
Makes no difference, right or wrong
We still have no place to belong
Stuck in a rut of being helpless
No one cares about the hopeless
But in dreams we'll find each other
Hold on to my hand now and forever
And ever and ever
Because I'm lonely being lonely without you
Because you're lonely being lonely without me...

Guessing Game
03:08
|
|
||
guess I was the one
who couldn't say
just how your love destroyed me
guess it was my game
that I'm to blame
for all the pain you caused me
guess I should have known
this was to be
the only way to hurt me
guess it's all on me
I'll take this shot
and disappear completely
guess it's what I wanted
I'll take my leave
just promise you won't forget me
guess I am the one
who still can't say it

Too Many...
03:20
|
|
||
Too many words to say
But none of them feel right
'I hate you' just won't suffice
I know I'll survive
Like I did before
Before you
Too many thoughts of you
Like my subconscious can't let go
I know I'll never forget you
Unlike you
Ooh
I know it wasn't easy
But at least I god damn tried
I know it wasn't easy
But at least I never lied
Too many words to say to you
But not enough time
'I loved you' just doesn't suffice
I know I'll be fine
Like before
Before you
Instrumental
Too many thoughts of you
Too many unwanted dreams
You didn't have to get up and just leave
I begged you please
Please stay
I know it won't be easy
But I guess that's just the truth
I know it won't be easy
But I've done all I could do
Done all I could do (X2)

Worth It
04:49
|
|
||
It's not everyday that you're feeling so lonely
And the things you knew
Are not the things that you showed me
And you're sighing at me
As if I'm the one who blew it
But I know it was your fault in the end
And you knew it
But I'm sorry for the pain I caused even if it wasn't my fault
Because you're the one to blame
And you were the one who was caught
There's a sadness I feel even though I know you deserved it
I really hope this honesty prevails
I really hope it was all worth it
In the end, what's the use in trying
Only ends in my tears
It ends with us crying
There's a sadness and a pain that I feel
You were no good for me
But I held you so dear
But I'm sorry for the pain I caused even if it wasn't my fault (wasn't my fault)
Because you're the one to blame
And you were the one who was caught (were the one who was caught)
There's a sadness I feel even though I know you deserved it (you deserve it)
I really hope this honesty prevails
I really hope it was all worth it
Worth it, worth it
I'm sorry for the pain I caused even if it wasn't my fault (wasn't my fault)
Because you're the one to blame
And you were the one who was caught (were the one who was caught)
There's a sadness I feel even though I know you deserved it (you deserve it)
I really hope this honesty prevails
I really hope it was all worth it~
It's not everyday that you're feeling so lonely
And the things you knew
Are not the things that you showed me
And you're sighing at me
As if I'm the one who blew it
But I know it was your fault in the end
And you knew it
And you knew it
I really hope it was all
Worth it (X4)
I really really hope it was all
Worth it (X$)
Worth it...

Why
03:04

|

Why
Why did I not know
How to treat you like you wanted me to
But I
Don't know what I should do
I'm still so into you
Can't find the words to tell you we're through
And I
Ask myself why
Why don't I realise before it's too late
And why
Why do I question myself
It was you who did the wrong
I have nothing to say to you except that 'you should be gone'
And I
Don't know what I should do
I'm still so in to you
Can't find the words to tell you we;'re through
And I
Ask myself why
Why don't I realise before it's too late
Before it's too late...
Why
Do I cry myself to sleep at night
I can't sleep (X4)
And why
Do I blame myself for what you've done
It's your fault (X4)
But all I can ask you is why
All I can do it ask you why...

Good To Say Goodbye
03:26
|
|
||
I hope you found what you wanted
I hope it's not too late
I hope you found what you needed
Hope it was worth the wait
I hope you're not too sad that it ended
Hope you don't just think of me with hate
I hope in time our hearts will be mended
Hoping it'll all be worth the wait
I know we almost had it all
I know we almost had it all~
I still wish the best for you
You're not forgiven but this'll do
It's sometimes hard to let go
Sometimes hard to see the truth
I had hoped we'd never fall
Hoped we'd never end it all
So this might not be goodbye for good
But it's good to say goodbye
Good to say goodbye
Maybe next time we'll be better off
Maybe we'll find someone new
Maybe it was the right thing stop
Maybe it's better for us to move on
Even though we almost had it all
Even though we almost had it all
I still wish the best for you
You're not forgiven but this'll do
It's sometimes hard to let go
Sometimes hard to see the truth
I had hoped we'd never fall
Hoped we'd never end it all
So this might not be goodbye for good
But it's good to say-
And we both know in end
Things will turn out alright
Even though it's the end
I know we will be alright
I still wish the best for you
You're not forgiven but this'll do
It's sometimes hard to let go
Sometimes hard to see the truth
I had hoped we'd never fall
Hoped we'd never end it all
So this might not be goodbye for good
But it's good to say goodbye
Good to say goodbye

Butterfly (outro)

Oh my
How you have grown
Oh my
Should've known you'd bloom
Your wings have flown further than the moon
Butterfly spring will come soon for you
Oh my
How you have grown
Oh my
Still alone I know
You fly further into the sky
Butterfly spread your wings and sail right
Because spring will come soon for you
For you
Maybe they will treat you better
Butterfly
Oh my
Butterfly...
