A Thousand Years

(Kennison)
Well it's hard to explain
All this hurt and this pain
That you caused me when
I was with you
And the sorrow won't end when
My heart never mended and by that time it ripped in two
And even though your instincts lied
You can't control my life
That's why I've survived

And I killed myself for you
But I've undone what you put me through
Good God you almost had me
Down on my knees
I guess I always will be married to the wreckage
But separated from the pain

Well it's hard to believe
That you'd ever concede that
My fire had ended with you
And though words cannot change
You always arranged to control the things
I fought for too
So tell me how does it feel
To watch it all end 'cause here I come again

And I killed myself for you
But I've undone what you put me through
Good God you almost had me
Down on my knees
I guess I always will be married to the wreckage
But separated from the pain

And the lies that you thrust upon me
Every single night
But it's alright
Revenge is mine

And I killed myself for you
But I've undone what you put me through
Good God you almost had me
Down on my knees
I guess I always will be married to the wreckage
But separated from the pain

Feels like a thousand years
