How easily those ideals crush
When I see you passing with him before my eyes
A flower held so firmly in my hand
Now falls to the ground
My clumsy attempt to be romantic
Becomes a blood red stain on the asphalt

And the pain that was always here
Hidden beneath of my fear to feel
Uncloaks and reveals
I stand there, unable to understand
What just broke inside of me

It was two weeks ago that you said
That this is the last time cold blooded bastard as I
Have made you cry

It was one week ago that I realized
That you are a love of my life

It was today that I bought a rose
And went to say you "I love you" for the first time

It is now that I burn and freeze
At the same time as you see that I am here
And almost burst to tears

She turns away, unable to look me in the eyes
There is so much I wish to tell her
Because I know she still loves me so much
But she has cried too much
And now seeks solace in someone that will love her back

They would always come too late
A words that I needed to say in moments like this
And this time too, nothing comes out of my mouth

So...I...turn...away...from...her
(I...walk...away...from...you)

In my head, such welter of "what ifs", "maybes" and "whys"
It is all about beginnings and endings
My beginning of loving her was her ending of loving me
Something I understand, but cannot accept

And now I am sorry that I was so cold,
Afraid to feel
But you knew that from the start
And still dared to love me
And look at us now
You seeking comfort in someone else's arms
Me not believing in love any more
And look at us now
Loving and hating each other at the same time

I am sorry I would never feel guilty
When you would come home too late and get grounded
Because I didn´t want to wake you
When you were sleeping so peacefully in my arms

I am sorry I would never walk you to your house
Because it was really far and I would rather stay in the warmth of my bed

I am sorry I said that it would be quite unreasonable
To have sex in the public park
But we still did it, because you said "To hell with your reason"
And I loved you so much that night

I am sorry I never told you how beautiful you are
And how much I love your scent on my sheets

I am sorry I said that you are weak
Because you believe in God

I am sorry that the only thing I said
When you told me that you love me for the first time
Was "I know"

I am sorry that you cried so much that time

I am sorry I never thanked you for those Terry Pratchett books you gave me once

I am sorry that I never wrote you a poem

I am sorry that I never made you feel
Like you are really mine

I am sorry because all of mistakes and wrongs I did to you
Because I was such a fool
Such a fool

And now when I say that I love you
You barely hold your tears
When I tell you I´ll always be here
You pretend you don´t hear
Please tell me that you love me
Because I love you too

No! she cries and runs away

You can´t run from me
We share the same love
Tell me that you need me
And I´ll never let you down

No! she still runs
Doesn´t look back
I stand there
Calling her name
But it is too late
...it is too late

And look at us now,
Two lost souls that were one
Loving and hating each other at the same time
And look at us now
Burning inside
Harder and harder
Until we burn out
Look at us now
