A day like this
You can't erase,
You can't dismiss a Judas kiss
Got caught off-guard:
Betrayed and permanently scarred,
It hit so hard
May the bridge you burn behind you
Kindly light your way
May your sin remain and
Let you live another day
While you're fading away
Here we are: on the edge,
Ready to slide down this slippery ledge
Go ahead, play your part:
Leave me alone with my pain –
This thorn in my heart
A pointless war,
No clue on what you're fighting for
But keeping score
I guess you've won.
As everything's been said and done –
Alright, I'm gone
May the bridge you burn behind you
Kindly light your way
May your sin remain and
Let you live another day
Here we are: on the edge,
Ready to slide down this slippery ledge
Go ahead, play your part:
Twisting this thorn in my heart
Every smile, every tear -
Fake as they come – are concealing a sneer
Go ahead, play your part,
Leave me alone with my pain –
This thorn in my heart
The time has come to figure out
Which side you're on: it's now or never
I'll leave behind this silent crowd forever
