The End - Silverstein

First time we met
Face became etched
In my mind

You were the sun
I was the one
Who worshiped you
My hands were your guns
Your eyes were my nerve

And I knew you could never love me
I had so much sorrow inside
You could never reach
But can I still keep
A place in your heart

You broke my heart
You promised me the moon and stars
I fell for your dreams, I fell for your lies
There was no other way
You know I tried

And I knew you could never love me
I had so much sorrow inside
You could never reach
But can I still keep
A place in your heart

There is something
I want you to know
I think you know exactly what it is
I didn't want to save you [x2]
I set our house on fire
To watch it burn
But I couldn't just leave you

And I knew you could never love me
I had so much sorrow inside
You could never reach
But I'll ask you this

Will you still miss me?
(Yes I miss you)
Do you love me?
(Yes I love you)

Fate fills the sky
we'll both die tonight [x2]
Hands from the sky
Spot us a one lifeline
As we follow the light
[x2]

We'll both die tonight [x2]

Spot us a one lifeline
(We'll both die tonight)
As we follow the light
(As we follow the light)

This union, a battle fought and lost
This union was not about the cause
This union was never about love
