| I look into your eyes and what am I to see | A |
| For the person you once were is not who you are today | B |
| The love we once had | C |
| It is not here to stay | B |
| For I realize who you are | D |
| And I am the same | E |
| I love you you are | D |
| It drives me insane | F |
| The pictures I had stored in my mind were a simple in correction | G |
| Yet you still remain me in my brain | F |
| You plague me like infection | G |
| I know that this can not be for two different people is what we are | D |
| But I will want you with me | A |
| I hope your wanders don't take you far | D |
| Why I feel this pain this sweet madness and infection | G |
| I do not know why | H |
| It leaves me without direction | G |
| For in the morning I will wake and you will too | I |
| I will remain in these helpless thoughts | J |
| I will still not know what's true | I |
| For the person I had pictured you is just not what you are | D |
| The galaxies I had for us to walk across | K |
| Turned out to be a fallen star | D |
| For love is not what we thought | L |
| It seems to be a game | E |
| It is one best left unplayed | L |
| It will drive you insane | F |
| I don't know how I feel or why I feel it for that matter | M |
| I would tell you these things | N |
| But your arrogance I wish not to flatter | M |
| So I watch you from a far and think what could have been | O |
| I think of all my mistakes | P |
| I think of all my sins | Q |
| And maybe it is these slight imperfections that kept us far apart | L |
| Maybe it is these very things | N |
| That doomed us from the start | L |
| I knew we would be broken | G |
| I knew these words | R |
| Would be best left unspoken | G |
| You dance to a drum that has no rightful rhythm | S |
| I dance to waves of the ocean | G |
| As I crumble within them | T |
| I don't what to toy with any piece of you for I fear there's not much left | L |
| I don't want to take your heart | L |
| For love is not theft | L |
| Why these feelings are here I have no reply | H |
| If you ask me any questions | U |
| I have no reasons why | H |
| This is how I feel my secret innermost thoughts | J |
| These are my duties and passions | U |
| For which I have willingly fought | L |
| So run away if you will for I would run too | L |
| But never for one second | L |
| Question that these words are true | L |
| Because I love you and it was not a choice for me to make | V |
| I laid myself down | W |
| Even though I saw everything was at stake | V |
| Call me a martyr for love if you will | X |
| For you racked up my pain like fines | Y |
| And I paid all the bills | Z |
