If the time was right, I would take you home It would be so nice, we could be alone But we're not alone You and I have our demons we can't control But we try with our vices tonight In a perfect world, I'd be a better girl I would mind my words and have hair that curls But it's not that world And it's becoming clearer with every look, every glance in the mirror You're pushing me further from you So take back your precious time It's taking over mine And I'm too blind to recognize so many things So take it back for me So take it back for me If I only knew what I meant to you Maybe I'd be true, would not question you But that's hard to do Cause it's becoming clearer that I'm abused by the things that I fear I'm pushing you further from me All that's left are silhouettes and shadows on the wall Stale ashes fill the glasses on the wooden floor Reminds me of a time when we would smoke indoors Sleeping just enough to understand what burns, understand what pain is I understand what pain is So take back your precious time It's taking over mine And I'm too blind to recognize so many things So take it back for me So take it back for me
