Change who you are, change all for me While I stand here and collect The last of your autonomy and All of your last self-respect You won't notice, you won't see As I turn my back on you Four years wasted, all for nothing And I'll blame it all on you Forgive me dear But I did my best for you! Take a good look at yourself Can you claim to have done the same? Shallow, hollow and deluded; You hide behind your perfect ways The way you are, it makes me wonder Did you really ever care? I did notice, I did see When you turned your back on me Four years wasted, I agree I guess this is all we'll ever be I gave you all, yes I fought on While you chose a cowards way Afraid to see, afraid to hear That it all came down to you Down to you... Down to you... Take my hand for one last time Just like we did, when we were young No-one's perfect, that I know That goes for all, me and you I admit, I have my faults But I choose to learn and grow So please trust me, face the facts What you are is but an act In denial Refuse to see In denial Refuse to hear In denial Refuse to learn In denial Refuse to grow In denial In denial In denial In denial The truth may hurt more than the lie But you need to wake up now My departure was your choice I did not choose to let you go The truth may hurt you even more But you can't hide in here forever The truth may burn you time after time But you can't avoid the truth forever Take my hand, for one last time Just like we did, when we were young No-one's perfect, that I know That goes for all, me and you I admit, I have my faults But I choose, to learn and grow So please trust me, face the facts What you are is but an act
