lyrics

This day won't last forever
This day won't last - she'll soon be gone
When you hear the door slam
Take a breath, you're on your own

You've finally doused the fire
Blinded by the light when you tripped that wire
You're aiming so much higher
Trapped in a room like a whippin' boy
Always treated like a broken toy

You've had enough
Had enough - now you see
The time has come to break the trend
You've had enough
Had enough - now you see
It's the beginning of the end

No, no-one lives forever
Close your eyes - embrace the dawn
No going back on your call
No going back - what's done is done

Situation, dire
Tampered with the truth till you became the liar
A victim of desire
Trapped in the room - without a voice
Too late to shout, you've made your choice

You finally grew the balls to say
You couldn't bear to live this way
There's nothing here worth trying to save
This has all gone way too far
Now she knows just who you are
But you can't outrun a scar, a scar, a scar
