Song Lyrics

Every afternoon,
I go inside these bitter walls
And I'll open up your eyelids to uncover what went wrong.
I know its true what they say,
You can't get hurt everyday
When it all comes around in a circle.

Last night, while you were sleeping,
I'd never noticed this before,
How I even want you more when you are right here.
In time I hope you will find out that everything that I have said
Was in your best interest instead
Of what I wanted out of you that's not my fault.

Cause I've never been so in love with you
Cause I've never been one to tell the truth,
I've never felt so alive.
I wanna know, why it feels this way inside me,
How it feels when you're around me,
I wanna know what's going on.
Promise me.

Trapped inside this room
And all I have left is to say,
If you want this, come and get this
And I won't stand in your way.
I know its true what they say,
You can't get hurt everyday
When it all comes around in a circle.

Last night, while you were sleeping,
I'd never noticed this before,
How I even want you more when you are right here.
In time I hope you will find out that everything that I have said
Was in your best interest instead
Of what I wanted out of you that's not my fault.

Cause I've never been so in love with you
Cause I've never been one to tell the truth,
I've never felt so alive.
I wanna know, why it feels this way inside me,
How it feels when you're around me,
I wanna know what's going on.

Cause I wanna be with you
Cause I wanna leave with you
So come on and tell me right now
If you're into me
Cause I wanna be with you

Promise me.
Promise me.
Promise me these words mean something,
So this won't add up to nothing. Promise me.
