All the nights I was drowning in the rain Hold my breath, tell myself I would see you again Let the storm blow over for better days Looking back, never knew what I left behind Find it hard, the view changes all the time I was always yours and you were always mine 'Cause I needed space, my heart to break 'Cause giving you up was my greatest mistake I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it I hate I couldn't hold you up When we were in the waters drowning Now I painted over our mistakes Just trying to find my way back to you I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it To know I couldn't live without it I see your face in the moment I feel lost 'Cause I lost my way and I feel the fault All I wanna say is I'm sorry (Whoa, whoa) I just needed space, my heart to break 'Cause giving you up was my greatest mistake I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it I hate I couldn't hold you up When we were in the waters drowning Now I painted over our mistakes Just trying to find my way back to you I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it To know I couldn't live without it (Whoa, whoa) It's like the world stands still Without your love Nothing's real I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it I hate I couldn't hold you up When we were in the waters drowning Now I painted over our mistakes Just trying to find my way back to you I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it (Whoa, whoa) It's like the world stands still I hate I had to lose your love To know I couldn't live without it

Okay, I've never really ever had it easy No one showed me affection boy, the way that you did I guess I've never had someone to truly teach me A Freudian connection was it something I missed? And you kept pushing so I had to pull away For me it was so alien, you begging me to stay But the moment that you chose to close the door Cut me to the core 'Cause I could only love you Baby when I lost you Something that I had to do So that this could all make sense Now I wanna hold you And do what I'm told to All the shit I put you through Tell me that it's not the end My friends are telling me this is just my ego They say your rejection is the reason I care But it's deeper, it's a feeling only we know In my self-reflection I can see I was just too scared Scared of loving so I had to pull away For me it was so alien, you begging me to stay But the moment that you said you're moving on Felt so wrong 'Cause I could only love you Baby when I lost you Something that I had to do So that this could all make sense Now I wanna hold you And do what I'm told to All the shit I put you through Tell me that it's not the end, the end Dare me to undermine Restore my restless mind Soothe me like calamine Say your line, say we're fine Stop playing oh you're mine We're wasting precious time When we can redefine Redefine, redesign Dare me to undermine Restore my restless mind Soothe me like calamine Say your line, say we're fine Stop playing oh you're mine We're wasting precious time When we can redefine Redefine, redesign 'Cause I could only love you Baby when I lost you Something that I had to do So that this could all make sense Now I wanna hold you And do what I'm told to All the shit I put you through Tell me that it's not the end, the end Your mind, your mind, your mind, your mind Your mind, your mind, your mind, your mind Your mind, your mind, your mind, your mind Your mind

Come with me, I won't hide We're going on a ride We meet each day, use time to see While we're young and almost free I've got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in Got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in Do not turn or hate to see All the things you think we've got Do not turn or hate to see What happened to the wife of lot I've got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in Got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in We're alone or so they say We're not on our own in that way When we're alone it's real tough going We can take a part in someone else's play Come with me, I thought he said But that's not him anymore, he's dead What's it like to be so free So free it looks like lost to me I've got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in Got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in I've got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in I've got to lose this skin I'm imprisoned in

Forbidden Image Do you care to think on One trouble shooter That we could fix on This fevered globe Was always meant to be A home from home But who's looking after Lose face, lose face In your place Could we all fight in An age demented With a white bright light That shines at night What have we invented? We all breathe in the same air Yet we all die for the air space Lose face, lose face Standing in your place (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face I bet you wonder if you're too scared Too scared to lose face (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face in your place Lose it Lose it Come on Lose it Lose it A "pied a'terre" No phone connected So when you need him Can't even reach him This fevered globe Was always meant to be A home from home But who's looking after Lose face, lose face Standing in your place (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face I bet you wonder if you're too scared Too scared to lose face (Don't you worry that you're too scared) Lose face, lose face in your place Lose it We all lose Lose it Breathing the same air (Repeat x 3)
