As Long As That's True

Tell me this fight
Was just a cause
That we will die
With these flaws
I know it's meaningless
But that is what we all face
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
I can get over you
Tell me you used me to climb
Above us poor souls standing in line
For me a lot of pain
Is what I need to pull me through
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
I can get over you
Wanna feel this hatred
It's what I need to drag me through this
I survive through nothing less
It tears me up as you calmly use it
Love abuse is just a test
Then sad old love songs
Stick the knife in deeper everyday
Twisting as you play
Tell me your reasons
Weren't pure
So I can kill
This wretched lust for you
Some damage done
Is what I need to go alone
As long as that's true (12x)
I can get over you
Was just a cause
That we will die
With these flaws
I know it's meaningless
But that is what we all face
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
I can get over you
Tell me you used me to climb
Above us poor souls standing in line
For me a lot of pain
Is what I need to pull me through
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
As long as that's true
I can get over you
Wanna feel this hatred
It's what I need to drag me through this
I survive through nothing less
It tears me up as you calmly use it
Love abuse is just a test
Then sad old love songs
Stick the knife in deeper everyday
Twisting as you play
Tell me your reasons
Weren't pure
So I can kill
This wretched lust for you
Some damage done
Is what I need to go alone
As long as that's true (12x)
I can get over you
