lyrics

I had the needle to my arm – but I pulled it away
I never wanted you to try – I only wanted you to stay
When things got worse – and I started to fall
It was so hard to face the truth that you never knew me at all

I should have held my tongue – but I said it anyway
Now all the things you know – are going to make us pay
Nine times out of ten I tell myself "if I could quit - It'd be ok"
And now the love we had, the love that we shared will never be the same – oh no

Oh - I’m a fool – to say - there’s still hope, somehow, some way
I’m a fool – to say - there is no God, cause still I pray...that…

When they come for me, will you die for me
When they come for me, will you die for me
When they come for me, will you die for me
When they come for me, will you die for me

You got me dreaming in red – mad crazed bizarre
A blood soaked vision of where we fell and of who we are
And I die in my dreams – almost every night
You know one false martyr is never enough so I guess we’ll be alright

I’m a fool – to say - there’s still hope, somehow, some way
I’m a fool – to say – there is no God, cause still I pray... that...

When they come for me, will you die for me
When they come for me, will you die for me
When they come for me, will you die for me
When they come for me, will you die for me

I had the needle to my arm – but I pulled it away
I never wanted you to try – I only wanted you to stay
It's days like these I come undone from the lies we live and the wars we won
And there's nothing left to do now - but go away...

I’m a fool – to say - there’s still hope, somehow, some way
I’m a fool – to say - there’s no God, cause I still pray...
That you'll come back to me one day...

When they come for me, will you die for me
