There used to be a time when you told me you loved me
There used to be a time when I believed it
There used to be a time when you told me your sorry
And I... would easily forgive and forget it
There used to be a time when our
Laughter would echo throughout the room
There used to be an intimate desire
There used to be a time when I swore that everything would be fine
But then you came into my heart and built yourself... a funeral pyre
There are no sweet words anymore
No clever phrases to scream at the face of a closed door
I watched you burn yourself away
Until nothing remained but your resentment and hate
There used to be a time when i wanted to see you every single day
There used to be an honest excitement
There used to be a time when you'd
Tell me how lucky you were to be mine
And I was so naive that I believed it
There used to be a sense of adventure in being together
Like we could face the entire world if required
There used to be a passion in you that I've never felt since
But then you came into my heart and built yourself... a funeral pyre
CHORDS
There are no sweet words anymore
No clever phrases to scream at the face of a closed door
I watched you burn yourself away
Until nothing remained but your resentment and hate
There used to be a time when you told me you loved me
There used to be a time when I believed it
There used to be a time when you told me your sorry
And I... would easily forgive and forget it
There used to be a time when our
Laughter would echo throughout the room
There used to be an intimate desire
There used to be a time when I swore that everything would be fine
But then you came into my heart and built yourself...
A funeral pyre
