It kills me not to know this, but I've all but just forgotten What the color of her eyes were And her scars, or how she got them As the telling signs of age rain down A single tear is dropping Through the valleys of an aging face That this world has forgotten There is no reconciliation That will put me in my place And there is no time like the present To drink these draining seconds But tell them so these words ring true When I'm constantly failing you All's new, we just can't break through Until it disappears, so tell me now This ain't love, and how do we get there? Cause I don't know, that's when she said I don't hate you, boy, I just wanna save you While there's still something left to save When I told her I love you, girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have And the day passes on like crushing waves But no man does it ever wait Black memories of dying days They're deafening us like hurricanes Pains and flames, we held the ground Don't curl the fingers in your hands Cursed into the flesh like sand Now do you understand? So tell me now This ain't love, and how do we get there? Cause I don't know, that's when she said I don't hate you, boy, I just wanna save you While there's still something left to save When I told her I love you, girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have One thousand miles away There's nothing left to say There's so much left that I don't know We never had a choice This world is too much noise It takes me under It takes me under once again I don't hate you I don't hate you, no So tell me now This ain't love, and how do we get out? Cause I don't know, that's when she said I don't hate you, boy, I just wanna save you While there's still something left to save When I told her I love you, girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have I don't hate you I don't hate you I don't hate you I don't hate you, no
