You know that I might need a while
To mourn the sweetness of your smile
You know it's gonna drag me down
You know that I'll be in denial
No one said that it was easy
But you don't know how hard I tried
In times like these I find myself
So far from who I thought I'd be
It seems like every word I said
They just come back to torture me
It's like I'm looking down the barrel
When the shots already fired
No news will come today
Save what your voice will say
For those who never quite know what you're saying anyway
Cause it's over, oh it's over
Get it through your head
Two birds with broken wings fall from the sky and sweetly sing
And still they carry on not knowing what the night will bring
And I've been waiting so long just to have this chance to say
The pain is over and I think I found a better way
Oh no, they cry
Why does it seem you never said goodbye?
My friend, you see
Some things just weren't meant to be
No news will come today
Save what your voice will say
For those who never quite know what you're saying anyway
Cause it's over, oh it's over
Get it through your head
Prepare for journey's end
Save up the time you spend
The time you stole from those you know would want you back again
Cause it's over, oh it's over
Your time is now
