Something I could prevent
Know it can't be the end of...
Yet they know that it's true
Can't see you leaving me soon
And it's not what you say
Please just say it's not true
While you're out on the town
Sitting here wondering why
You will feel the sting tonight
I'm done with the keeping of the light
You will feel the sting now forevermore
Break out this time, deceiver
And I'm writing this book
While you're wasting away
Know that our friendship is true
Till the first light of dawn
There had once been a time
When you were all I could
See myself growing old with
Have happened just like I thought
But look where we are now
Nothing that I can explain
Except that you're not the one
That I thought you could be
Found trust within your name
You will feel the sting tonight
I'm done with the keeping of the light
You will feel the sting now forevermore
Stay locked inside, deceiver
Know that this song is for you.
