Don't Be A Hero

you've taken my breathe away for the very last time
never again will my lungs be left unsatisfied on account of you
let's get this straight, you had it all
how many lives can i possibly offer before it's enough?
you know that i risked it all for you
i screamed through the fog at 100 miles an hour
i thought i had found my way home
how am i to make a wish when all the stars have all burned out?
you always told me that they would be mine one day.
don't tell me that this doesn't hurt you
i need you to feel the same as i do
you know i'm the only one equipped to break you
so why am i feeling so cold?
we're out there all alone, if only you'd find it in yourself to give it all up
we're on a collision course with certain failure but i promised that i wouldn't let you down
it's so dark out tonight, you painted it all black. i'll take this to my grave.
so throw me overboard, as if you ever needed me anyway
tie the anchor around my ankles, i'm better off at the bottom of all this
there's nothing left to say, so seal your heart off and watch me fade away
