Lost in Translation

You shot the messenger far too soon
So I will be the bearer of your bad news
I fear this is not what you wanted to hear
As we draw near to our unavoidable doom

So please won't you leave me behind?
One more soldier falls in line

You imagined where you'd never been
With best of intentions, that's where we chose to begin
Lost in translation, we're fading awake from this dream
All was perfection when nothing was all there could be
Lost in translation, we're fading away

So please won't you leave me behind?
One more noble sacrifice

Why would I deceive you?
Why would that please me?
All I desire you've given completely
All you've to offer I've already taken
What must I do to get you to believe me?
All I require is some explanation
Why would you lie to me, love me, and leave me?
Not all is forgotten
You make it sound easy
But deep down inside you
You know that you need me
Best of intentions are lost in translation
We're playing with fire at the edge of damnation
I can't absolve you, no not absolutely
Low and behold now there's nothing
Where something should be
