You talk about that night
Like something made up in your mind
I promise you, I tried calling you
I left some flowers at your door
I know you'd rather stay out late at night
To prove a point
Parked two streets ahead is where you spent
Every Friday night out in the cold
You're trying hard to reach someone else's dream
You're a fool and you've just led yourself to see
Through the looking glass
Won't you let things pass by?
Instead of holding onto what you want to see
But I understand
That you don't think that you can let it be
Some people claim themselves
As someone they just wished to be
But you don't even know yourself
Enough to say that you're the same
Either way, you're caught again
I think it's a little late
To find a place to start again
I told you twice, you wouldn't last
You're running from your own stupid games
I lied about that time
I saw you standing in the crowd
I pretended to not notice you
You won't look back at what's left behind
I pulled you from my mind
Around last summertime
Need to remind myself what it was really like
How you waste my time
Leave me on the line
I've seen you making friends in case I leave your side
But you've got your reasons too
I won't disapprove of anything you do
Guess I'm just a fool
You're a futile fight
Driving late at night
I can never stay between the lines
You're in the dark
Or you're a fading light
A dying flame that burnt too fast
I held your hand through the wind and rain
But now you're someone that I can't explain
