sometimes wonder if I'll be remembered
For what I've done
After I'm gone
I really only ever wanted to do what was right
Not just for myself
But for everyone involved in this
I sometimes think I've lost heart just a little
And things seem to slip by so much faster now
Just so you know
This isn't what I wanted
It's gotten to be too much
It's my fault
I should've known
And maybe it's easier for you to put me down this time
But I've done all the thinking
The work and worry up to now
You say you don't care
No purpose left in our endeavors
And I make you angry with the simple fact
I don't feel the way you do
My arms around you
What I find; what I find within you
Your arms around me
What I've found within me
Now it's all come to nothing
Never claimed to have all the answers
You feel I've cheated you somehow
You know it never was for myself
I only wanted to belong and be loved
You couldn't see what I felt
I never promised to be your reason or your savior
Everything you need
My arms around you
What I find; what I find within you
Your arms around me
What I find within me
Now it's all come to nothing
Though we've tried nothing's changed
Sit back and watch the pieces fall
Don't leave anything worth saving
Degrading all we've built
To dust and ashes
What passes for memories of guilt
And in my mind your anger is taking over
Everything you see
This madness, this is your pride
Can't you see that all your envy eats you up inside
Used to want to help us all
It's too late the end is here
Nothing pure; petty hate; all is lost
Could it be that you still believe you're right?
So I didn't fit your grand picture
Who's the fool?
Can you tell?
Me or you
What's left but hurt when you say that you feel this way
Goodbye to peace
Just say goodbye to yesterday
How many dreams we've lost to pain
How many lifetimes
Will we be forced to give away?
Couldn't see what I felt
I never promised you
To be your reason or your savior, to be your everything
My arms around you
What I find; what I find within you
Your arms around me
What I find within me
Now it's all come to nothing
So I didn't fit your solution
Who's the fool?
Can you tell?
Me or you
What's next
It is hurt; is it anger
To me you're a stranger with far too much to prove
