lyrics

Sometimes I feel as though you'll forget me
Deny the tears that fall from my face
And sometimes I fear as though you'll replace me
Find someone better to erase my mistakes
And you don't really have to tell me twice:
"I'm not the one for you"
But as I lay awake and wait for sunlight
I hope it isn't true

(Chorus)
I want to be set free
And I want the world to see
That you don't know who you are
You've placed your heart inside a Broken Jar

If you want to cover up all our memories
And pretend our life was never real
If you want to save your face and disown me
Deny the love that you say you can't feel
And as you spew your lies with no regrets
I can't help but think
That this is just a cry for someone to help
You're edging towards the brink

I'd never think that you would betray me,
But it's okay, that was my mistake
Now you pretend as though it'd be easy
To conceal all the hearts that you have disgraced
And you don't really have to tell me twice,
You're not the one for me
And as I lay awake and watch the sun rise
I'm glad I'm finally free

(Final chorus)
And I don't need you to stay
This world has burned away
Please help me realize
That there's no chance to put out the fire.
