Lyrics

So how many times must I pay for this massive mistake?
And how many days does it take to reclaim your trusting faith?
I didn’t realize what was at stake the choices I’d make
The feelings I’d fake the pressure it took to break me
And who am I to question your creed
Your lingering doubts resolve excuses or sanity?
I’d have done just what you did if I were you
I’d have run lash my tongue right back at you
It’s not something that you can fix so stitch up your lips
I’m gonna need a crutch or a trip or a fool to get through this
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Ways to say that “I love you”
And not a single one of them is coming true
So I hope the best and convalesce with you
And I won’t complain I have no claim
But it scares me half to death that you might share his name
And the role reverse has smothered me in shame
I drill home my point when my actions speak louder than words
Your physical touch is ineffable but you’re never sure
It’s clear that you don’t respond well to gifts or compliments
Or the fact that I made sure you’re precisely how my time is spent
As I propose the Gods disagree and rightfully so
The romance is lost it’s all just a show hypocrisy
The embers grow into a monstrosity
This Fireside Wake comes alive with rage that rapes and it burns
And it tries to kill me
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Ways to stay in love with you
And all your contradicting thoughts & point of view
So I feel the need to twinge and bleed with you
I won’t self-destruct but God I’m fucked
And it’s not your fault I failed I just ran out of luck
But the game we played amazes me in spades
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
Two-Hundred & Sixteen-Thousand
