A Terrible Lie

Well I tried to persuade you to stay
Your mind was made up anyway
You gave your reasons with the change of the seasons
And I won't convince you today
So you tore up my lyrics, my sounds
They're scraps of notation and nouns
Since we've been estranged your bedroom's rearranged
Our photos are taken down

Oh my heart skipped a beat when I heard
Your words were completely absurd
You said goodbye, it's a terrible lie
Because there's nothing good in that word
Oh my heart skipped a beat when I heard
Your words were completely absurd
You said goodbye, it's a terrible lie
Because there's nothing good in that word

And I still regret to this day
All the words that I just couldn't say
Don't dwell on the past our dice can't be recast
But still I wish that there was some way
Now every time I close my eyes
I'm haunted by memories of all your goodbyes
And the hope that we'd make up as soon as I wake up is dashed
And I won't claim that prize

Oh my heart skipped a beat when I heard
Your words were completely absurd
You said goodbye, it's a terrible lie
Because there's nothing good in that word
Oh my heart skipped a beat when I heard
Your words were completely absurd
You said goodbye, it's a terrible lie
There's nothing good in that word
