Will we pay, for the lives we pushed away.
Or find a way, I'm just asking you to stay.

So how can I, just up and leave without a goodbye,
I'll find a way for you to stay, if you stay right beside me.
It's not enough to just sit still all my life,
So I'll escape or I'll at least have tried.
So let's open up our eyes to see the light.
Well for what are we waiting?
Tell me what are you waiting…

Oh, yeah in the end it's how hard we try,
But we do just enough to get by.
No, it doesn't matter how hard we try,
To stay alive and I don't know why…
Why you don't seem to care anymore,
And if you're letting me walk out the door,
Then you must be satisfied with the way that your life passes by.

And it starts today, and I'm surprised you feel the same way.
For what it's worth, you were my world, you looked past and you waited…
You waited for me to get past all the pain,
And put the pain all in the past once again.
And when I needed to escape, you found a way.
Well I think I'm excited.
God I hope I'm excited.

Oh, yeah in the end it's how hard we try,
But we do just enough to get by.
Oh, it doesn't matter how hard we try,
To stay alive and I don't know why…
Why you don't seem to care anymore,
And if you're letting me walk out the door,
Then you must be satisfied with the way that your life passes by.

I'll make it clear what I mean,
Yea I just want you to stay with me.
We won't get caught in between, you'll see.
We can leave all of ourselves far behind
Stay until the very end.

Oh, when in the end babe its how hard we try,
We'll never get enough done to get by.
Oh, but still I'll follow you into the light.
And you say,
And you, don't see to care anymore,
And if you're letting me walk out the door,
You'll never be satisfied with the way that your life passes by
