It's hard to pinpoint the moment when it all goes wrong
He piled mistakes upon mistakes all the while
Trying to discover the right course
Then you come to catch 22 and there's nothing left but saying goodbye
Without even having the energy to explain why
Oh, blinders
Who were they kidding?
But such a love, oh, such a love

These curtains bare I saw you standing there
All alone in this world no one cares

And you should've known it right from the moment you met
But you knew it wasn't quite right
And I dunno if you remember, but
He was with a little goth girl that night
But the way he went about it, by the second day he felt so close to you
Like you were life-long friends
Wrote you a song then, ah foreshadowing the end
Such a love, such a love, oh, yeah

These curtains bare I saw you standing there
And you know that in this world no one cares
These curtains bare I saw you standing there
Amidst your shadows on the walls of Hiroshima, baby

Such a love, such a love

These curtains bare I saw you standing there
And you knew in this world no one would care
These curtains bare I saw you standing there
Not an article of clothing, you were bare

And when it comes down to the end
I won't think ill of you, I won't think ill of him
We write our lives this way, we make it up as we go along
Every once in a while a Requiem for a love gone wrong
And I believe that neither of you ever meant to hurt anyone

Say goodbye, I don't have the energy to explain to you why, oh
