Hurts so deep I can't see it
Grip tight you just don't feel it
From afar we're so much closer
That night replays over and over
When the words I can't unsay
Differ from the ones I mean
You're the loop in my delay
And the ghost in my machine
Hesitate and dare to breathe
Only demons will prevail
These are things I can't unsee
These are words we can't unsay
Regret the day I met you
I should have up and left you
Wish I never existed
You've missed your chance to fix this
When the words I can't unsay
Differ from the ones I mean
You're the loop in my delay
And the ghost in my machine
Hesitate and dare to breathe
Only demons will prevail
These are things I can't unsee
These are words we can't unsay
No making up for borrowed time
I start a fire just to melt all the icicles that froze your heart
Mid-life, pending, jacknifed, shattered dreams
You've gotta go to return
You've gotta fail to succeed
I see you in a different light
And the laws that you attract
With the devil in your eyes
And the angels and your back
By a faith that's blind to me
All I want is to be saved
These are things I can't unsee
These are words we can't unsay
When the words I can't unsay
Differ from the ones I mean
You're the loop in my delay
And the ghost in my machine
Hesitate and dare to breathe
Only demons will prevail
These are things I can't unsee
These are words we can't unsay
