To Whatever End

I have secrets to keep
Flames that would need some tending
And these hopeless delights
They all have hopeless endings

I do not know what less I could ask for
So I will wait 'till whatever end

If I cannot have you
Then anyone will do
You want me almost enough
Almost enough to take me

You gave a name to my greatest pain and now
I will claim it to whatever end

End is all that I need
So grant me the rest I long for
Take me for what I am
For I cannot take this no more

Love doesn't die unless I will kill it
So I will go to whatever end

I will burn all the hopes I was tending
Keep on walking the road never-ending
I will learn what I'm worth and I'll know that
I was not meant for someone like you

Should've known that the gown wouldn't be white
And the burden of you wouldn't be light
And for all that I do I can't help it
You will not fall for someone like me

You come just like a storm
And wrap me around your finger
Add insult to my injury
And watch how the pain doth linger

You're still a thing to behold
But I'm not the one to hold you
Last time was the last time
I'll leave like a thief, I have to

Love doesn't die unless I will kill it
So I will go to whatever end

I will burn all the hopes I was tending
Keep on walking the road never-ending
I will learn what I'm worth and I'll know that
I was not meant for someone like you

Should've known that the gown wouldn't be white
And the burden of you wouldn't be light
And for all that I do I can't help it
You will not fall for someone like me

You wouldn't hearken to my heart
You wouldn't open your arms
And I couldn't tear down all of your walls
I couldn't shine in your dark

I will burn all the hopes I was tending
Keep on walking the road never-ending
I will learn what I'm worth and I'll know that
I was not meant for someone like you

Should've known that the gown wouldn't be white
And the burden of you wouldn't be light
And for all that I do I can't help it
You will not fall for someone like me

Should've known that the gown wouldn't be white
And the burden of you wouldn't be light
And for all that I do I can't help it
You will not fall for someone like me
