  • My tears run down like razorblades
    I know I'm not the one to blame
    It's you or is it me'

    And all the words we never say
    Come out and now we're all ashamed
    And there's no sense in playing games
    When you've done all you can do

    But now it's over, it's over, why is it over'
    We had the chance to make it
    Now it's over, it's over, it can't be over
    I wish that I could take it back but it's over

    I lose myself in all these fights
    I lose my sense of wrong and right
    I cry, I cry

    A shaking from the pain that's in my head
    I just wanna crawl into my bed
    And throw away the life I've led
    But I won't let it die, but I won't let it die

    But now it's over, it's over, why is it over'
    We had the chance to make it
    Now it's over, it's over, it can't be over
    I wish that I could take it back

    I'm falling apart, I'm falling apart
    Don't say this won't last forever
    You're breaking my heart, you're breaking my heart
    Don't tell me that we will never be together
    We could be over and over, we could be forever

    I'm falling apart, I'm falling apart
    Don't say this won't last forever
    You're breaking my heart, you're breaking my heart
    Don't tell me that we will never be together
    We could be over and over, we could be forever

    It's not over, it's not over, it's never over
    Unless you let it take you
    It's not over, it's not over, it's not over
    Unless you let it break you
    It's not over Writer/s: John Vesely
