Taking out the pieces of a shattered heart
Taking each day one by one
You left something in remembrance of us
A wound that I can't seem to recover from
It keeps me holding on
Bound to your shadow
Everyday we shared a lie, so perfect
You will always be the one
Do you remember
I still remember those days
As we were once
Taking out the pieces of a shattered heart
Taking each day one by one
Until the end, everything I've ever done was for you
Was for you
It always was you
And you betrayed us
I was compared by your lies
You were decided in my trust
I am mislead by the promise
You left behind
Everyday we shared a lie, so perfect
You will always be the one
Do you remember
I still remember those days
As we were once
Wanting, waiting
I've spent a lifetime longing for you
Needing, bleeding
You've made an art of inflecting my heart
As we were once
As we were once
As we were once
As we were once
Everyday we shared a lie, so perfect
You will always be the one
Do you remember
I still remember those days
As we were once
As we were once
Can you remember
How we shared our lives
