If we ever write the play
We'd never need to rehearse
'Cause everything we say

I should've been there
I could've stopped
This heart for you

And I, I didn't want this
I should've been there
I could've stopped
This heart for you

And how long?
And how much pain?

Before we start again

And how long?
Do we need to cry?
Before the tears grow cold
Before the lies run dry

I didn't want this
I did it anyway
I didn't want this
I did it anyway

I didn't want this
I did it anyway
I didn't want this
I did it anyway

And I
