I wish I could take back what I'm about to do If I were in control of me I wouldn't see this through And when I turned and looked you in the eye I knew I'd let you down I didn't need to try Shed your immortality tonight It hasn't served you in this fight Your saving grace is that you set aside All the ways you'd hurt her if she knew how much you lied You play with fire and you burn your tongue When sorrow and when entropy have never seemed so fun The only ones who'd ever wish you ill Are all the hungry journalists who never had their fill And they'll say Come back, this is your last chance Drop the gun, call off the advancing men I don't care if it feels too late I know your trigger happy finger will hesitate And we'll survive I wish I could take back what I'm about to do Oh, if I were in control of me I wouldn't see this through And when the troops desert me in the night You will find me on the run Forever out of sight And you'll say Come back, this is your last chance Drop the gun, call off the advancing men I don't care if it feels too late I know your trigger happy finger will hesitate And we'll survive Come back, this is your last chance Drop the gun, call off the advancing men I don't care if it feels too late I know your trigger happy finger will hesitate Come back, this is your last chance Drop the gun, call off the advancing men I don't care if it feels too late I know your trigger happy finger will hesitate And we'll survive
