It's four in the morning,
the tears are still falling
my eyes are still burning
from the night before

it's the morning after the night before,
and as i wake up i remember more
another day, another fight
there's another thing i can't ever do right.
and as i turn over and hit the snooze
there's another bout of words of abuse
in the end we both know it's true,
i'm never ever going to be good enough for you

You say that it's me that you'll never forget
but now i'm turning into your biggest regret
the first thing you said was "is it a dream"
then you woke up and you started to scream
it's turned into a nightmare where i'm your biggest fear
now the nightmare won't end and i'm still here
you're running away and searching for the end
but instead discovering your heart won't mend

you carved your name into my heart, the words are etched into my soul
but as you look into my eyes the truth begins to unfold
rules govern everything but nothing applies to you
and when i show you the other side you don't like to see my view.
feelings have meaning where words don't exist
nothing can be said so feelings start to drift
there's sense in sensibility yet you don't understand
you're supposed to have my heart but you don't even have my hand

so i let it carry on, my heart is only breaking
we'll carry on, i'll do all the giving, you do all the taking
and every time i'll say i'm sorry and i'll hide the tears today
and when i can't stop them i'll just turn my head away
cos in the end it's me that's in the wrong
why do we fight when we've known the result all along
i say it's my fault, it's everything i do
but even then i'm still not good enough for you

as i try to tear away you mark your words in deeper,
i don't want to let go, but i can't let you keep her
i'm torn by conscience and desire, a fever burning high
i'm lost in a whirlpool of your fire and yet to question why
