I was walking down the street doing nothing

When she ran right into me and I was wondering

If it could be that she didn't see

But she spit that hatred at my face

I felt like I wanted to fight

When I saw her hungry eyes and broken heart

And recognized her pain

I saw it I know it and I walked away

Only love could save her anyway

I can't believe all the times that we bleed

That it's all for nothing

I will deny all the tears that we cry

That it's all for nothing

Sometimes I feel so confused when I look at us

And all we went through

After eight years of sharing every dream together

We don't even talk

Is that all there is

What we stood up for

Now we stand behind a million locked doors

And we can't even say that we'll be friends

Sometimes things just change and we don't know why

I don't think I'll swallow that kind of lie

I can't believe all the times that we bleed

That it's all for nothing

I will deny all the tears that we cry

That it's all for nothing

Do we all want to believe there's more to this

Than the lights just turning out

Now we gotta have a real conversation even if we don't

Know each other's situation

Who says we're powerless just because of all the injustice

There's still time to fight

You just gotta go you just gotta try

You're the only one that's standing in your way

Sometimes things keep changin' we don't know why

Don't think I'll swallow that kind of lie

I can't believe all the times that we bleed

That it's all for nothing

I will deny all the tears that we cry

That it's all for nothing
