Burn it down to the filter, I'll swallow my pride and watch the snow
Because all along I've been singing you
All the words to a song that I don't know
So I'll fake a smile for one more night
And you'll pour a drink to kill the cold
We can pretend for a little while that I don't have any reason to go
But the sun will rise, and our hearts will sink
To learn that forever isn't always a permanent thing
But I don't want you to know who I am
Cause I don't want you to see the wreck inside of me
In the prison of my mind we used to be happy
But now that's buried under years of dying every day
We are not the same, you're slowly pushing me away
But I would give anything just to know you'll be ok
So smile for me
It's never gonna be easy to tell you I'm leaving
In the bitterness of saving face I lost my way
Will you give me the strength to say
That I make mistakes, I get carried away
I've fallen down around you like a cold and steady rain
But the sun will rise, and your heart will sink
To learn that despite everything, I loved you all the same
But I don't want you to know who I am
Cause I don't want you to see the wreck inside of me
In the prison of my mind we used to be happy
But now that's buried under years of dying every day
We are not the same, you're slowly pushing me away
But I would give anything just to know you'll be ok
But I don't want you to know who I am
Cause I don't want you to see the wreck inside of me
In the prison of my mind we used to be happy
But now that's buried under years of dying every day
We are not the same, you're slowly pushing me away
But I would give anything just to know you'll be ok
Burn it down to the filter, I'll swallow my pride and watch the snow
Because all along I've been singing you
All the words to a song that I don't know
