Lyrics
I'm cutting through,
You're bleeding out,
And I would tell the truth
But I can't help myself
Red rushes out,
Dissect this nerve,
And I'll stop myself
Before I reach my cell
I wasn't asking for the world
And you know that I'm not the one to follow through
All these city streets
The people look the same,
And I can see your face,
And I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world
You're stabbing in,
Permanent scars,
And you'll justify it all inside yourself
You've finished me,
My pulse is gone,
And you're satisfied to put this all to hell
I wasn't asking for the world
And you know that I'm not the one to follow through
All these city streets
The people look the same,
And I can see your face,
And I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world
Drink the poison when you think it's over,
Stabbing yourself when you think it's too late
Tragic endings are your thing; you love them,
You love letting go, the ending's the same
Drink the poison when you think it's over,
Inevitable, Verona lives inside of you
I wasn't asking for the world
And you know that I'm not the one to follow through
All these city streets
The people look the same,
And I can see your face,
And I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world
