take it for granted, i dare you, i dare you
everything you think and feel will be different in the morning
soak it up, that's what i've been here for - i hate to say it. no wait, i don't
you're living in fantasies, endless illusion that i won't feed anymore

i have become an ever-protesting enabler
time for it all to crash on down

in the blink of an eye it'll be over
you won't know what hit you, won't know what to do
in the blink of an eye you'll be all alone
driving all your allies to insanity, i'm telling you now
your trickles of give won't balance the wealth of taking
you'll have used us all up, you'll be all alone
in the blink of an eye

ask me why i haven't dared to say it before
do i sound a little angry? i never could get in a word
my world, it's somehow centered on you:
your needs, your dreams, your anguish - i can't take it anymore

PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS

can you really blame me?
it's you who said you hated me
hated me for being what you CAN'T BE
it doesn't matter if it was just a whim,
it doesn't matter if you don't mean it,
i mean it now when i walk away

CHORUS
