We should know by now that life is not the same 
I have watched you try to cover your mistakes 
I don't care about what the people say 
But it's down to me, I know my mind 
And I will find my way 

And I don't regret the time we spent 
My time with you, it was not in vain 

And I wonder why 
Where it all went wrong 
And how you lost your home 
You're the reason that I'm gone 

And I wonder how 
How you came to change 
And how you lost your way 
My life's just stayed the same 
(Stay the same) 

Couldn't spend my life, always trying to please you 
The time had come for change 
That's when I realised that I really did need you 
And I knew right then I wouldn't take the pain
