Oh I know that you're alive & well
I just needed time to tell you long, long ago
That when we were young & beautiful we took the world & held it on our own
Let it go

And if it's you that makes the first mistake then it's me that makes the last
And if it's you that makes the first mistake then it's me that makes the last

And as time goes on I'll think of you when everything we built was made to fall to the ground
Throw a penny down the wishing well & watch the time tick on to something new
I just wish that you were here

And if it's you that makes the first mistake then it's me that makes the last
And if it's you that makes the first mistake then it's me that makes the last

Tied up she took him to the lake to watch him drown
Tied up she took him to the lake to watch him drown
Tied up she took him to the lake to watch him drown
Tied up, he was all tied up woah
And if it's you that makes the first mistake then it's me that makes the last
And if it's you that makes the first mistake then it's me that makes the last
Tied up she took him to the lake to watch him drown
Tied up she took him to the lake to watch him drown
Tied up she took him to the lake to watch him drown
Tied up, he was all tied up woah

Well if you follow behind me then stick to the road
There's death on the sidewalks at night on these streets you know
With each step just watch where you go
And cradle your hopes & your dreams if you love her

She took him to the lake to drown him in his lust
Follow behind me & watch where you go
She's everything I hate she's everything I love
Follow behind me & watch where you go
She took him to the lake to drown him in his lust
Follow behind me & watch where you go
She's everything I hate she's everything I love

I needed something to feel, I needed something to feel now she's gone
I needed something to feel oh oh, I needed something to feel now she's gone
You got me hanging by a lonely, I'm hanging by a lonely rope
You got me hanging by a lonely, I'm hanging by a lonely rope

Lights on the horizon it ain't what you know
The danger ahead is disguised as the one you love
With each day just watch where you go
Don't fall into something you're climbing back out of

She took him to the lake to drown him in his lust
Follow behind me & watch where you go
She's everything I hate she's everything I love
I needed something to feel, I needed something to feel now she's gone
I needed something to feel oh oh, I needed something to feel now she's gone
You got me hanging by a lonely, I'm hanging by a lonely rope
You got me hanging by a lonely, I'm hanging by a lonely rope

I'll hold on now & I'll jump when you say "I never even loved you that much anyway"
And it's all gone & you're out on your own
I'm singing all these words & hope you're singing along
I'll hold on now & I'll jump when you say "I never even loved you that much anyway"
And it's all gone & you're out on your own
I'm singing all these words & hope you're singing along
I'll hold on now

I needed something to feel, I needed something to feel now she's gone
I needed something to feel oh oh, I needed something to feel now she's gone
I'm singing all these words & hope you're singing alone
Sing with me
