Severance & Affection

If you could tell anyone who asks
"Why don't good intentions ever last?"
Would you dig up graves of the past?
Could you tell anyone who asks
'Bout the true connections that you had that are gone
Say, "I wish that I never had them all along"
Would you flee in a panic?

If you could do anything would you move
In a new direction
Would you choose to re-invent
To rule over earth and heaven
Would you lose all the bad moods you have then?

Holding my life like a grain of sand
I can't see the ending but I feel it's in my hands
It's the same thing everyday I'm closer to the end
Of all this severance
Severance & Affection

Please don't point me
I don't need a map, I've got a master plan
Please avoid me
I'm giving up the memories that I wish that I never had

Cause it's the same thing every day
I'm closer to the wrath of all this severance
Severance & Affection

If you could give anything, could you spare me the truth
Why do best of friends never glue 'til the bitter end
And it's true
That I would do anything for just half of the few
Connections that I had that I lost
Now I'm mad that I ever added up the cost
What a failure of habit

Inside my heart there's a broken man
Could not feel him mending when I held him in my hand
Now it's the same thing
Every day I'm shaking in the bath
Half-filled with hatred and affection

Could she adore me?
I really need a women who can hold my hand
Could she be for me?
I don't know what to say
I need love every day but I don't wanna beg!

If I could tell anyone who asks
Why don't good intentions ever last
I won't mention
