It’s been a long long time
but I won’t forget what you’ve done
You used me like the other ones
til all my dreams were gone
I hadn’t thought about it
then someone asked me where you had been
I just had to say you were long long gone
What if I write a song
to tell everyone the way I feel?
Although you’ll never hear it
you’ll know I’m madder than a mother who lost her baby yesterday
I swear I’m better now,
but I lost a lot of faith yeah I lost a lot of faith because of you
So it goes…and the beat goes on and on and on
I’m doing so much better now,
in fact I’m happier now than I’ve ever been with someone else
I hear that you’re still struggling
to find yourself and live on your own
I wish that made me angry,
or sad but I feel nothing anymore
So it goes…and the beat goes on and on and on

Looking back - no more forward
Walk away - can’t go homeward
Don’t you know - you have lost me
Don’t you know - you have cost me
My heart is numb to you, can’t you see
My head above the clouds, finally breaking free
You’re out of my head,
You’re out of your mind
I’m out of feelings for you
I’m better off dead
I'm better off blind
To the things that you do
We’re both better off, now we are through
No more words - we’re done talking
No more pain - since I’ve been walking
I can only hope - that I get by
I can only hope - that I can fly
My heart is lighter now, without you
My head is clearer now, that we are through
If I had a doubt, it is over now
Now that I am out,
I have seen how
I to live without
Your dark forbidding cloud
You’re out of my head,
You’re out of your mind
I’m out of feelings for you
I’m better off dead
I'm better off blind
To the things that you do
We’re both better off, now we are through

Miss you in the morning, lost my appetite
Miss you in the evening time, no more kiss goodnight
Quiet time is not what I need now… no no
All outta love, all outta love
All outta love, you’re all that I’ve been thinking of… thinking
Thought we’d be forever, thought you liked my smile
Always turned to never, now I’m outta style
Solitary never felt so low….
All outta love, all outta love
All outta love, you’re all that I’ve been thinking of… thinking

v1:
sometimes the best cliches turn out to be true
you're put to the test and you fail, even though you knew what to do
and I've got 2 good eyes
but they failed to realize
ch:
so this is my apology for everything that went wrong
you must have known you'd get one
did you think it would take so damn long
I don't want to take the blame
but I'll take it just the same
this is my apology
v2:
sometimes the best laid plans just weren't meant to be
I took all the rest of your dreams and scattered them to sea
and I've got 2 good ears
but they failed when you were near
ch:
so this is my apology for everything that went wrong
you must have known you'd get one
did you think it would take so damn long
I don't want to take the blame
but I'll take it just the same
this is my apology
br:
goodnight, darling
another over & out
so long, sweetheart
you were warned a million times
oh, how I tried
I let you down
I let you down
ch:
so this is my apology for everything that went wrong
you must have known you'd get one
did you think it would take so damn long
I don't want to take the blame
but I'll take it just the same
this is my apology
this is my apology
this is my apology

How many punches can you take
Before your will begins to break
I’ve got enough to last all night
When will you lose your will to fight?
This ain’t the way I thought it’d go
I counted dreams like dominos
I thought that I was in control
A lesser love can take the toll
I wish I knew just why I feel
There’s no-one at the steering wheel
Someday I’m gonna get to the core
Of why I don’t love you anymore
So here’s the part where I decide
The kind to kill, the tears all dried
And here’s the part where you play dumb
As if you never saw it come
I stand against the icy stream
It pulls me down, I wanna scream
I know just where I wanna go
No one can stop the river’s flow
I wish I knew just why I feel
There’s no-one at the steering wheel
Someday I’m gonna get to the core
Of why I don’t love you anymore

Well you closed the book
Barely halfway in
And put it back on the shelf
Closed your eyes
said silent prayers
To wake up someone else
Ghosts don’t have the time of day
But they’re always keeping watch
Nagging with their bitter hearts
No fear of being caught
They don’t care that their being there
Might cause you too much pain
They just hold hands with the shadows
Like diggers beside the grave
But each new day
Before the mirror confirms
You know all to too well
There’s new lines
To criticize
This haunted empty shell
Ghosts don’t have the time of day
But they’re always keeping watch
Nagging with their bitter hearts
No fear of being caught
They don’t care that their being there
Might cause you too much pain
They just hold hands with the shadows
Like diggers beside the grave
