So The Story Goes

What do you want from me?
What do you need from me?
Who do you want me to be?

Why is it so hard to see
I’d give up all I could be
Just to be closer to you

So won’t you please believe
I cannot turn my life around, can’t turn my back on what I’ve found
I can’t bleed no more I cannot close my eyes and hope, no more

I don’t want it to end but so the story goes
Unless there’s something you’ve got left to show
I guess it’s just my way of telling you
There ain’t nothing more that I can do

It never changes
What did you do to me?
I’m not who I used to be
I don’t recognise myself anymore

You’re playing with fire my dear
One day it could all disappear
And you’ll have nothing left but your doubts and your fears

Oh, we need a miracle
Oh, something magical

It’s starting now
Let’s get away from here
Leave all behind disappear
And start over some place new

Deep down inside I know
You wanna break out
And forget about all that keeps you here
We could start over
Jump in a car and just drive and drive for days

Cos I don’t want it to end but so the story goes
Unless there’s something you’ve got left to show
I guess it’s just my way of telling you
There ain’t nothing more that I can do
