Song Lyrics

I know what you're doing,
I see it all to clear
I only taste the saline
When I kiss away your tears

You really had me going,
Wishing on a star
But the black holes that surround you
Are heavier by far

I believed in your confusion,
You were so completely torn
Well it must have been that yesterday
Was the day that I was born

There's not much to examine,
There's nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious
If you have to ask me why

I say good-bye

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,
It's worth the price
The price that I would pay

Everyone keeps asking, (what's it all about?)
I used to be so certain (and I can't figure out)

What is this attraction? (I only feel the pain)
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame (Will it ever change?)

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,
It's worth the price
The price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway...
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah...

I've come to find
I may never know

Your changing mind
Is it friend or foe?

I rise above
Or sink below

Every time
You come and go

Finn and Blaine:
Please don't come and go

Ooh

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,
Worth the price
The price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah

I don't know what you doing

Finn and Blaine:
I see it all too clear
