Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


I've gotten myself to believe that I was never on your mind,
It's taking awhile but I'll get over it in time.
You played the game, won the war,
Congratulations, I don't love you anymore.
So I come to you, with a broken heart,
You don't understand, why we well apart.
I'm heading out, gotta go,
Before I leave you should know.
Well you never did show you cared about me anyway,
So give me a good enough reason why I should stay.
Well you never did show you cared about me anyway.
Dropped my heart on the floor,
Don't apologize anymore.
I can't stay,
I gotta go my own way.
Can't stay,
Gotta go my own way.
Explain to me,
Have I been on your mind lately?
You've already broken the trust,
It doesn't matter if you've thought about us.
I played your game, I lost the war,
I'm moving on, we've settled the score.
You and I aren't meant to be,
Can't take the lying, I'm sorry.
Well you never did show you cared about me anyway,
So give me a good enough reason why I should stay.
Well you never did show you cared about me anyway.
Dropped my heart on the floor,
Don't apologize anymore.
I can't stay,
I gotta go my own way.
I gave you everything you ever wanted,
But nothing ever seemed to cut it.
I tried to be the one you loved the one you could trust,
But nothing ever turned out alright with us.
The play went wrong, not the way we'd planned,
Our initials washed away when the water hit the sand.
Shut the book I don't want another story,
Put down your words, it's time you got over me.
I gotta leave,
You have to believe.
I can't stay,
I gotta go my own way.
Well you never did show you cared about me anyway, (It's too late to change your mind)
So give me a good enough reason why I should stay. (I'm moving on, saving time)
Well you never did show you cared about me anyway.
Dropped my heart on the floor,
Don't apologize anymore.
I can't stay,
I gotta go my own way.
Can't stay,
Gotta go my own way.
