i took on all your pain/oh, what a great mistake i made
i never thought you'd leave me with all your burdens overneath me
'i miss you' would be understated/memories have slowly faded
that love you sacrificed was just another way to die
if heaven is a place you'll go, i don't know if i will ever see you
and if you leave before you know, i'll let go of all we've ever been through
i'm finding out the ways to live, in spite of all the wars you left inside my mind
love is just a way to die
we both have scars to show off all the nights we carved alone
if you'd come back, believe me, i'd show you pain is not self-healing
do you think of me at breakfast? when your hungry nights are sexless?
one day you'll come to find i found another way to die
if heaven is a place you'll go, i don't know if i will ever see you
and if you leave before you know, i'll let go of all we've ever been through
i'm finding out the ways to live, in spite of all the wars you left inside my mind
love is just a way to die
make me forget my name and get drunk on your words and laugh
save me regret and blame and let love rectify the past
i'll settle for a life that's a little more gentle/if you'd come back, we could last
if heaven is a place you'll go, i don't know if i will ever see you
and if you leave before you know, i'll let go of all we've ever been through
i'm finding out the ways to live, in spite of all the wars you left inside my mind
