I've lost my voice; I've said all I have to say. You re thick as porcelain, as clear as cellophane.
i miss the nervous shakes and miss the way it hurt, the way it killed to think that I had you first.. I had you first

Chorus: So then I force a smile, I take the stage, now my knees are weak try to concentrate, I m loosing air with every single breathe that I take.. I look into your eyes, see the chemicals, you're the whitest white; you've become a ghost. You're dead to me so why can't I let you go?

The phone is like a knife I drive into my ear. I had a love affair with distance and with fear. The bus is like a hearse, driving me from her, she's as black as white, she the perfect curse. She s the perfect curse

Chorus

And if the walls had eyes, we would never lie, you could come down on me. And if you saved my life, how could I survive, you're the one that made me this way

Chorus.
