lyrics

There's something that I want to know
I wanna talk and figure the reason~
This isn't how it's supposed to be,
with me here bleeding from where you touched me.

I never seen it, I never believed
that you could see me the way that you've seen me.
We were a dream within a dream
And you're throwing it away, at least that's how it seems.

And it didn't have to be like this.

This pain of mine is like a badge
I'm proud of it, but it brings no courage.
When you were close and yet so far away
And now I'm here in this bitter, winter rain.

So please don't look at me yet.
Please don't break the silence
until no one is left blaming me,
my love, my silent witness.
