You're Just A Glare.

We should've seen this coming,

We were heading to all disaster,

Now there's no turning back,

And no one becomes the master.

East to the west,

And north to the south,

It don't matter what we choose,

Cause either way we're gonna lose.

No matter how hard we try,

Even the strongest love couldn't mend,

What we've both become,

And keep us together til the end.

It doesn't matter that you love me,

It doesn't matter that you care,

Doesn't matter that i need you,

Cause you're not here - you're just a glare.

Sometimes i think,

If only we didn't meet,

If only we remained strangers,

On that cold park seat.

If only i didn't sneeze,

And you didn't lend me your jacket,

Maybe our eyes wouldn't have met,

And i could've shook you like a bad habit.

But now we're both trapped,

By these chains dragging us down,

And i don't even care,

Cause you're still with me as we drown.
