A Day To Be Alone

One Less Reason · A Lifetime Burning [2007]

She said I wonder when

It'll be my day

Cause I'm not too far from breaking down

All I've got are the screams inside

But somehow they come out in a smile

And I'm wondering if I'll always feel this way, this way



Tell me about those nights you stayed awake

Tell me about those days you hated me

Tell me how you'd rather die alone than being stuck here with me

And maybe you've fallen down

And maybe you, you took the long way home

But baby, you could never love you, like me

And one day this will fade away

In the mirror, you'll see your smiling face

And standing next to you will always be me, yeah me



One day you're gonna see things my way

You gave me so much room that I can't breathe

When all I've got are pictures of you

There was nothing before, it all started with you

But for some reason, it's supposed to be that way, that way



Tell me about those nights you stayed awake

Tell me about those days you hated me

Tell me how you'd rather die alone than being stuck here with me



And maybe you've fallen down

And maybe you, you took the long way home

But baby, you could never love you, like me

And one day this will fade away

In the mirror, you'll see your smiling face

And standing next to you will always be me, yeah



If I could shrink it down

And put it in your hands

We made it hurt so much

I can't forget the past

Just tell me what to say, show me what to do

Then I can forgive me and I could forgive you



And maybe you've fallen down

And maybe you, you took the long way home

But baby, you could never love you like me

And one day this will fade away

In the mirror, you'll see your smiling face

And standing next to you will always be me, you know it'll always be me

And I will wait... always be me... till I see your smiling...
