Looking back, I see the heart before the ache
Where did it come from?
Why did it break?
Look around, I see the walls about to cave
As they crumble in
I wish that I could stay
Far away from everything
And you'd be there
And you'd be there
Look inside, you'll see it's not the way I say
When I fall apart so easily
But I look at you
And I say this could be the day
They're only words
But they'll make me stay
Far away from everything
And you'd be there
And you'd be there
When I say my line
You can hear the words you like
And forgive me for the rest
You know I try
To say my line
But it's a losing fight
I forget that there's a chance
That you're on my side
Looking now, I see the heart before the ache
Why does it have to come?
Why must it be this way?
