No, don′t go and say my name
Right after you've done kissed her
I knew we′d never be the same
Come on, come on cold winter

We threw us in the air like paper planes
Knowin' we'd crash soon after
After all that′s said and done
We′re at that point of no return

Is this what Usher meant when he was singin' let it burn?
(Usher, Usher)
Isn′t this the same conversation
Why you didn't wanna wait your turn?
What′s gone is gone

So, don't be callin′ my phone
With that familiar reminiscing tone
Leave all past alone, be a bit rational
Me, I'm no daffodil

(Fragile) That's not me, I′m agile
By the time I′m feelin' empty, I′ll be senile
Yeah-yeah, I heard you
If I need you I got your number on speed dial

All the things I had to deal with, I'm done with it
Tell me what I love to hear
Then doing the polar opposite
(But it′s not like that)

I'm obstinate, yet only when I′m confident that
There isn't a better solution than the one I'm proposing
Like I said, if I need you I′m gon′ give you a call
Until then, you don't have to check up on me at all, I mean it
Yet, if you need me for real then I′m down, I mean it

'Cause this is more than just a feelin′
So much more than simple sentiments
It runs deep in my veins
Yes, it keeps these demons chained
It keeps me sane (it keeps me sane)
I can finally hear myself thinkin'

Take a load off, stress helps nobody
Take your clothes off, warm waters could end all agony
Hours on end that raggedy moment
That calamity runnin′ your mentality, shunnin' positivity
Lacking alacrity towards that evening meeting, cold and unappealing

Knowin' my ego′s about to receive the worst beating
Knowin′ this could be over before we reach that opening
Knowin' this could unfold to be this century′s best pairing
Panning that vision off to the stabbing of trust
Or should I say I threw it under the bus
Played with it 'till it pops then wipe it away like pus
Not us because, it′s always ashes to ashes and stardust to stardust

Call this the confession leading to this fall upon us
Erroneous what I've done, you′re disgusted
It's so fun seein' you act like it ain′t obvious
Fabulous how you′re lookin' day and night
I′m tired of this sittin', waitin′ for that epic fight

'Cause this is more than just a feelin′
So much more (so much more) than simple sentiments
It runs deep in my veins
Yes, it keeps these demons chained
It keeps me sane
I can finally hear myself singin'

Now you can go ahead and start to count old days
Unless you're better than your old ways
In which case you′ve raised yourself
You could be on the road that pays
Then know I′m so proud of your livin' and doing your own thing

It′s all love, I don't mess with all the hate
Me, I′ve got the herbs, my nerves they serenade all day, every day
This no gimmick, in fact it runs deeper than the pacific
Prolific, statin' nothin′ is ever the end of it
Life is greater than life of the flesh, death, decay
What could have, what may, who made what mistake

Love is for love's sake
Music's for love sake
Art is for love′s sake
If anything is at stake?
Then life is for love′s sake
Sacrifice is for love's sake

In those eyes I can see the love fade, that′s okay
'Cause I can′t begin to fathom the true depth of your pain
I'm throwin′ my deuces up, sayin'
This love remains
