Late dawns and early sunsets

Just like my favourite scenes

Then holding hands and life was perfect

Just like up on the screen

And the whole time while always giving

Counting your face among the living

Up and down escalators

Pennies and colder fountains

Elevators and half-price sales

Trapped in by all these mountains

Running away and hiding with you

I never thought they'd get me here

Not knowing you'd change from just one bite

I fought them all off

Just to hold you close and tight

But does anyone notice?

But does anyone care?

And if I had the guts to put this to your head...

But would anything matter, if you're already dead?

And well should I be shocked

Now by the last thing you said?

Before I pull this trigger

Your eyes vacant and stained...

And in saying you loved me

Made things harder at best

And these words changing nothing

As your body remains

And there's no room in this hell

There's no room in the next

And our memories defeat us

And I'll end this direst

But does anyone notice?

But does anyone care?

And if I had the guts to put this to your head...

But would anything matter, if you're already dead?

And well should I be shocked

Now by the last thing you said?

Before I pull this trigger

Your eyes vacant and stained...

And in saying you loved me

Made things harder at best

And these words changing nothing

As your body remains

And there's no room in this hell

There's no room in the next

But does anyone notice

There's a corpse in this bed?
