It's amazing how circumstances fall
And be at their rightful places.
Is gravity responsible for this
Or do we take pleasure in fooling ourselves
that fate is?

Wishing I could feel the way I felt before
Before negativity had my positivity absorbed
Absorbed all the glitter in my eyes
Eyes that realized what's real from lies
Lies that made me withhold my trust
Trust that cannot be earned no matter what
What now? I'm left to myself again
Again, I want to leave you hanging
I'm hanging on the moment here
Here I am starting things the way I ended it
It started out like this
This is where I leave you
You and I, once again, strangers
It feels strange every time I think of it
But it ends here. No more ifs, buts, or ands.
And in the end... I'm still wishing.

I had the chance to be with someone new
I must say, I did change when I met you
But in the end you found yourself still dragged behind
By the past you thought you had out of sight & mind

So I told you to go after what you long waited for
Because there comes opportunity knocking at your door
You told me I had a kind heart for letting you be
Truth is I have a fragile heart, and you knew that about me

So while I thought you chased the one that got out of hand
Here you are now, with another girl you once had
Hell must be real & I felt the urge to curse you
But then I realized, you did make me feel anew

Now here I am with the lessons I've learned
Oh darling, how the tables have turned
Because now I find myself
With the one I left before you were my world

Life is like the game of musical chairs
Sitting, standing, roaming round and round
Dancing merrily to the beat of the song at play
Despite of being aware that the music will be unexpectedly gone.

Darling, I don't have the enthusiasm to
play hide and seek or peekaboo
I'm having a hard time seeing things through
Now tell me,
*Where were you when I needed you?
