lyrics

(Girl) "I wait for the day when I can calmly say that I'll stand by my choice to love you and leave you - a terrible sacrifice. And it's true, I thought I'd need you, but as sure as the sun shines, I know that there's another guy for me to try to replace you. Because the farther I get from you, the closer I am coming to revealing eye of my mind, where everything I do is just fine. I know that there is so much more that I could do to prove that I hate you."

(Guy) "It's that gust of wind that's brought us here again. The ditch where we both lie has only room enough for one, so stop placing your hand in mine. How could you? I thought I knew you. I guess the backwards society is causing you to act so cruel. You're see-through. I see right through you. But should I hyperventilate and waste all of my breath on you?

Repeating the same mistakes is becoming the new trend as of late. I'm pouring out my heart and soul to give you ample proof. But you don't have a clue."

And we've been just getting even. It seems like everything we've ever done was just to entertain ourselves...

But, all scheming thoughts aside, there's something that I've got on my mind. If this is what attraction means then what's the point in us wasting our time?
