Here we are
In a room full of broken hearts
Lovers once
But in the end
We never really had a chance
You wanted to be free
Now that you're lonely
You want me back again
But I'm not gonna be the one
That you call
Not gonna take the fall
For all your indecision
Not gonna put my back to the wall
Not gonna take the fall
For all the pain you've given
Me and you
We were a dream
That never could come true
In time, you'll see
That our love
Was never really meant to be
And if you discover
You need a lover
Someone to break your fall
Well, I'm not gonna be the one
That you call
Not gonna take the fall
For all your indecision
Not gonna put my back to the wall
Not gonna take the fall
For all the pain you've given
Ahh
You wanted to be free
Now that you're lonely
You want me at your arm
But I'm not gonna be the one
That you call
Not gonna take the fall
For all your indecision
Not gonna put my back to the wall
Not gonna take the fall
For all the pain you've given
Me
