I was caught off guard I was unprepared Memories in parts Never to be shared I hope you found your peace In all your happy lies Cause all that's left of me has died Every day I erase a little more of you Rewrite, replace, recycling plastic blues I'm calling to the stars To shine a bit more bright Cause my mind is darker than the night And all these parts of me Are finding ways to other people's hearts And all this love; it's so cliché Enslaved, expired days take hold of us I'm at the corner of the gate Of my past mistakes I see you everyday But still I run away, I run away I'm at the corner of the gate Of my past mistakes I see you everyday But still I run away, I run away The clock strikes 10 About the thousandth time How long have I hit play, press stop, rewind? And I recall a time when I did not know love If only that were now because All these parts of me Are finding ways to other people's hearts And all this love; it's so cliché Enslaved by expired that days take hold of us I'm at the corner of the gate Of my past mistakes I see you everyday But still I run away, I run away I'm at the corner of the gate Of my past mistakes I see you everyday But still I run away, I run away And all these parts of me Are finding ways to other people's hearts And all this love; it's so cliché Enslaved, expired days take hold of us I'm at the corner of the gate Of my past mistakes I see you everyday But still I run away, I run away I'm at the corner of the gate Of my past mistakes I see you everyday But still I run away, I run away
