all the years and the wasted time
all the love and the white lies
all for nothing, all for nothing
now that I can see, the end of loving
all that we're left with are two broken hearts sitting on the sidelines

i can see the love fade everytime you stay put
on the same subway seat instead of coming home
all that is left of us is skin and bones
all that is left of us is the tragic prose
now all you try to do is avoid me
drown yourself in your work, trying to stay busy
the only time i see you now
is later than midnight

turn this love into a breach of faith
looked at my destiny, you're far away
it hurts so bad now that you're slipping away
turn back time only if I had the privilege

i can see the love fade everytime you stay put
on the same subway seat instead of coming home
all that is left of us is skin and bones
all that is left of us is the tragic prose
now all you try to do is avoid me
drown yourself in your work, trying to stay busy
the only time i see you now
is later than midnight

change your mind about this love
change your mind about us
change your mind to fit the story
darling dont you make me worry
I fell so quick, i make you sick
and you're busy kissing new lips

i can see the love fade everytime you stay put
on the same subway seat instead of coming home
all that is left of us is skin and bones
all that is left of us is the tragic prose
now all you try to do is avoid me
drown yourself in your work, trying to stay busy
the only time i see you now
is later than midnight

don't stay out
don't stay out
don't stay out
don't stay out
don't stay out later than midnight
your eyes they shine, not bitter, but so bright
I don't want you to lose that spark
and I'm afraid it might happen
if you stay out after dark
