i can't help but wonder what we could become
this feels so right
but it's going so wrong
give me a chance  
and i'll give you one
to make something beautiful
out of something so ****** up
it's like the odds are all against us
but we can't deny
each other
we're not that cruel
not that sadistic
we like pain
but we don't love it
so maybe we'll try
or maybe we'll die
but i won't give up

unrequited love keeps us alive
it gives us hope
it gives us a reason to live
so i understand why you're still alive
but why am i?

i pretended that i was ready for you
for what we did
but i can't go on pretending that i'm okay with slipping into my old ways
you just have a way
of corrupting me
and you think it's okay
but have you ever seen me
when it's all over
i can't even see myself
and
i don't ever want to see you again
i'm blind
until the next time
