It must have been a year since I was thrown across an ocean far from home Life is making no sense Riding in between the highs and lows Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh When I wake in the morning, I Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh It's the first on my mind Maybe what I miss most It wasn't made of steel and stone And maybe what I miss most It wasn't born of skin and bone Under the sun, above the waves Under three crowns when I'm far away Maybe what I miss most And maybe I'll never know Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh And maybe you'll never know Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Maybe you'll never know Life beyond the window I'm jealous of the way that black bird flies Free among the people Those quarter million stories pass me by Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Lie awake in the moonlight, I Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh It's the last on my mind And maybe what I miss most It wasn't made of steel and stone And maybe what I miss most It wasn't born of skin and bone Under the sun, above the waves Under three crowns when I'm far away Maybe what I miss most And maybe I'll never know Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh And maybe you'll never know Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh And maybe you'll never know I remember at the table All those faces, where did they go? I imagine what it looks like When I'm not there I remember, every summer But now the years are just a number There's no backwards Time is faster with everything I've left behind, oh But maybe what I miss most It wasn't made of steel and stone And maybe what I miss most It wasn't born of skin and bone 'Cause under the sun, above the waves Under three crowns when I'm far away Maybe what I miss most And maybe you'll never know Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Maybe you'll never know Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh And maybe you'll never know Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house That don't bother me I can take a few tears now and then And just let them out I'm not afraid to cry Every once in a while even though goin' on With you gone still upsets me There are days Every now and again I pretend I'm okay But that's not what gets me What hurts the most Was being so close And having so much to say And watching you walk away Never knowing What could have been And not seein' that lovin' you Is what I was tryin' to do It's hard to deal with the pain Of losing you everywhere I go But I'm doin' it It's hard to force that smile when I See our old friends and I'm alone Still harder Gettin' up, gettin' dressed Livin' with this regret But I know if I could do it over I would trade, give away all the words That I saved in my heart That I left unspoken What hurts the most Was being so close And having so much to say And watching you walk away Never knowing What could have been And not seein' that lovin' you Is what I was tryin' to do I'm not afraid to cry Every once in a while even though goin' on With you gone still upsets me There are days Every now and again I pretend I'm okay But that's not what gets me What hurts the most Was being so close And having so much to say And watching you walk away Never knowing What could have been And not seein' that lovin' you Is what I was tryin' to do What hurts the most Was being so close And having so much to say And watching you walk away Never knowing What could have been And not seein' that lovin' you Is what I was tryin' to do

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house That don't bother me I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while Even though going on with you gone still upsets me There are days every now and again I pretend I'm OK But that's not what gets me What hurts the most Was being so close And having so much to say And watching you walk away And never knowing What could have been And not seeing that loving you Is what I was tryin' to do It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go But I'm doin' It It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret But I know if I could do it over I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart That I left unspoken What hurts the most Is being so close And having so much to say (much to say) And watching you walk away And never knowing What could have been And not seeing that loving you Is what I was trying to do, oh. What hurts the most Was being so close And having so much to say (to say) And watching you walk away And never knowing What could have been And not seeing that loving you Is what I was trying to do Not seeing that loving you That's what I was trying to do

Ooh, when I look at your face When I look in your eyes This is not what you wanted You never liked surprises It's not about them or what they think we do I never cared about what they said I only cared about me and you I'm not something that you can buy You know I've never been that type (fuck no) I never cared about this life 'Cause if you took it away All that ever mattered was you, baby All that ever mattered was you And I guess you never knew All that ever mattered was you So what is it like now that you don't have me? So what is it like? Nevermind don't tell me Do you think about all the things I did to you? Hmm Do you think about how to get me back? When you remember that, to me All that ever mattered was you, baby All that ever mattered was you, baby And I guess you never knew All that ever mattered was you, babe I'm pulling away (I'm not something that you can buy) You know I've never been that type (fuck no) I'm pulling away (never cared about this life) I'm pulling away ('cause if you took it away) All that ever mattered was you, babe All that ever mattered was you, baby And I guess you never knew All that ever mattered was you, baby

Most of what I like Is given to me by The one that I love Bears the onus every time Technically I don't deserve to live this kind of life Perturbed at what I might become Unchanging every time Ecstasy is what I'm needing I'm bleeding from the eyes You always shut your eyes When you look me in the eyes Always caressing The ropes which I've frayed The corpse that I'm dressing Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Face to face is nice But sharper than a knife I teeter on it's edge Just waiting to be sliced Returning home brain dead And you inject the life Appeal to me, love Remake, rebuild, revise Restavit is what I'm bleeding A laxative to cry You always shut your eyes When you look me in the eyes Always caressing The ropes which I've frayed The corpse that I'm dressing Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed Should never be displayed
