Troy

I'll remember it in Dublin in a rainstorm
And sitting in the long grass in summer, keeping warm
I'll remember it, every restless night
We were so young then
We thought that everything we could possibly do was right
Then, we moved, stolen from our very eyes
And I wondered where you went to
Tell me, when did the light die?

You will rise
You'll return

The phoenix from the flame
You will learn, you will rise
You'll return being what you are
There is no other Troy for you to burn

And I never meant to hurt you
I swear, I didn't mean those things I said
I never meant to do that to you
Next time, I'll keep my hands to myself instead
Oh, does she love you?
What do you want to do?
Does she need you like I do?
Do you love her?
Is she good for you?
Does she hold you like I do?

Do you want me?
Should I leave?
I know you're always telling me that you love me
Just sometimes, I wonder if I should believe
Oh, I love you
God, I love you
I'd kill a dragon for you, I'll die

But, I will rise and I will return

The phoenix from the flame
I have learned, I will rise
And you'll see me return being what I am
There is no other Troy for me to burn
And you should've left the light on
You should've left the light on
Then I wouldn't have tried, and you'd never have known

And I wouldn't have pulled you tighter
No, I wouldn't have pulled you close
I wouldn't have screamed, "No, I can't let you go!"
And the door wasn't closed
No, I wouldn't have pulled you to me
No, I wouldn't have kissed your face
You wouldn't have begged me to hold you if we hadn't been there in the first place
Ah, but I know you wanted me to be there, oh-oh
Every look that you threw told me so

But, you should've left the light on
You should've left the light on

And the flames burned away
But, you're still spitting fire
Make no difference what you say
You're still a liar
You're still a liar
You're still a liar
