Remember who still loved you
And if you had
He just might
When you wake up
In the dead of night
Feeling so empty
And full of fright
Remember who still loved you
And if you had
He just might
He just might
Broken Angel
You're too far away
You're too much for me to take
You torture me
You take away
Any peace I prayed to save
Every time I hear your voice
Or I even hear your name...
I go insane
I feel the same
Creeping feelings of regret
And I forget to hold my head high
I begin to bear the blame
I give into the temptation
That contemplation has erased
Confusion, constant oblation
For anything more than this serious situation
That I wish I did not have to face
You were once
The angel of my dreams
I forgot to let myself see
What you really did to me
We're broken in different ways
I'm broken down
Looking all around
For any sense of salvation
I wish you could find the same
Because in your brain
You seem to think that it's ok
To leave someone hurting in such a way
Breaking hearts, tearing apart
All inclination
To move past sentimental sensation
Broken angel, maybe of my own creation
We were walking wearily
Into a snare we could not see
We almost let ourselves
Be tied together for life
And that's not right
Because the truth about me
Is I was never anything
That you really wanted
With your halo burning bright
Really an illusion
If you say so, I just might
End all of my confusion
By cursing you by name
By bursting out of all my seams, all the same
You were once
The angel of my dreams
I forgot to let myself see
What you really did to me
We're broken in different ways
I'm broken down
Looking all around
For any sense of salvation
I wish you could find the same
Because in your brain
You seem to think that it's ok
To leave someone hurting in such a way
Breaking hearts, tearing apart
All inclination
To move past sentimental sensation
Broken angel, maybe of my own creation
You really were everything
I ever wanted
You were my all, my serenity
But now right in front of me
Is the realization
That there is no meant to be
There is no pre-planned one to set you free
And I rushed and put off all chance of patience
My life, to my disappointment
Is a life without you
Nothing more or less will ever do
I simply cannot avoid it
I cannot spend another day wasting
Waiting for a rescue, your invitation
You were once
The angel of my dreams
But no my nightmare become flesh
I forgot to let myself see
What you really did to me
We're broken in different ways
I'm broken down
Beaten, defeated, denied, your utmost regret
Looking all around
For any sense of salvation
I wish you could find the same
Because in your brain
You seem to think that it's ok
To leave someone hurting in such a way
Breaking hearts, tearing apart
All inclination, all hope, all absence of hesitation
To move past sentimental sensation
Broken angel, maybe of my own creation
My darkest creation
Touch Your Face
Baby, I...
Never meant to hurt you
I never...
Meant to make you cry
I can't understand how
You could stay with me now
I just can't see why
You would be so forgiving
To someone
Who abused your love
And took you for granted
I never gave you enough
What did I ever do
To keep you here
To earn the right
To still love you
Love is all about
The ability to forgive and forget
I swear I'll try harder, Baby
Please don't give up on me just yet
I can't believe
I could allow myself
To treat you this way
I never realized
What I had
I really played
The villain in the play
Lookin in your eyes tonight
I can't see how
I ever lost my sight
Of what you really meant
And all the good and bad
That came and went
I always let you let me go
To do what I wanted but didn't know
Was so wrong to do
And all along
I was never really true
Did I ever force your hand
Or place on you demands
I am so sorry
For my selfish ways
I am such a disgrace
Please just let me...
Touch your face
Something That I Told You
I don't think I told you
But I would give my life
To hold you
If only once
Could you ever allow it
Since I can't do it...
Now that...
The miles we have between us
Aren't any shorter
But only seem to keep us
Wishing so much it's hurting
And can we get through the next few months
Til it could happen
Before I lose my mind
And I find
It's not somethin I could have and
It's not somethin open
But so difficult that all this pain
And all this hoping
Is all in vain
And I don't think I can take it
Because my heart is so slowly breaking
And I need so badly to hold you
Is that something that I told you
If everyone stays out of our business
And only accepts it like meant it
Maybe it won't be so bad
But the time it is taking
Is making me so lonely that I'm aching
And all the waiting
Is worth it all the while but I'm
Too sad right now to smile
Because the loneliness I'm hating
And I know that we'll be together
Whether it makes sense to them or not
But time seems it's standing still
And if I don't hold you soon
I'm afraid it will seem I never will
I would give anything in this world to hold you
Is that something that I told you
Why is waiting so damn painful
Dragging on and on
Until I feel
My mind is gone
Will it all come back and remain,
All... I could ever do
Is spend a while
Missing you
In denial
That wishing you
Were here right now isn't killin me
Waiting so unwillingly
Because not that I don't want you now
But knowing the wait is way too long somehow
We have to make time for us some day soon
Forget how hard that is
So I can give in to give in to you
I would give anything it takes to hold you
Is that something that I told you
You worry I might not accept your past
Like you haven't tried to forget it fast
But you don't get that I know that
That's the old you
I would do anything just to hold you
Is that something that I told you
Is it anything I ever told you
I'll say it from a mountain top
If I could hold you
If that's not something that I told you
I'll still shout it out from every place
Just so maybe I could see your face
And maybe I can have one taste
Of the lips I long to know, you
Know I would give the world to hold you
But if that's something I haven't told you
You will know it soon
