You act like you don't care at all
Busy feeling sorry, waiting for the fall
You try to hide from pain, even though
The answer's not shooting poison up your vein
Wake up - There's no point in loosing
You have everything to win
Why do you keep running away
When you know how much they want you to stay
So get over it, life's just too short
All they crave is your time and love
The pain they must feel can't be described
So get over it, they need you right now
Can't you see it in their eyes
I watch the children play
And can't begin to understand why you keep
Treating them this way
I hope that someday soon you'll say
"I'm sorry, I made a mistake
Deep inside my heart is true and from now on
I'll be here for you"
Why do you keep running away
When you know how much they want you to stay
So get over it, life's just too short
(Life's just too short)
All they crave is your time and love
The pain they must feel can't be described
So get over it, they need you right now
Can't you see it in their eyes
Lies - Is that all you have to offer in return
Lies - We've heard them all before
Lies - Down and out and nowhere to be seen
It's all too sad when a little heart cries
"I don't have a dad"
Why do you keep running away
When you know how much they want you to stay
So get over it, life's just too short
Life's just too short
Why do you keep running away
When you know how much they want you to stay
So get over it, life's just too short
(Life's just too short)
All they crave is your time and love
The pain they must feel can't be described
So get over it, they need you right now
Can't you see it in their eyes
Can't you see it in their eyes
In their eyes
