I think I've reached that point Where giving up and going on Are both the same dead end to me Are both the same old song I think I've reached that point Where every wish has come true And tired disguised oblivion Is everything I do Please stop loving me Please stop loving me I am none of these things I think I've reached that point Where all the things you have to say And hopes for something more from me Are just games to pass the time away Please stop loving me Please stop loving me I am none of these things I think I've reached that point Where every word that you write Of every blood dark sea And every soul black night And every dream you dream me in And every perfect free from sin And burning eyes And hearts on fire Are just the same old song Please stop loving me Please stop loving me I am none of these things I am none of these things I am none of these things
