Lyrics

I don't want to fight
These are not words of one who loves me
Please, you know I'm right
How many times can I beg for mercy?

This calls for a celebration
You get what you want no matter who you're hurting but

Now when I wake up,
I'll know I did enough,
What about you? What about you?
And when time picks us apart,
I'll know I brought my heart,
What about you? What about you?

Please don't make this hard
For it's already hard to turn and leave you
Don't say a word
I'll never survive if I forgive you

This calls for a celebration
You get what you want although you're not deserving

But now when I wake up,
I'll know I did enough,
What about you? What about you?
And when time picks us apart,
I'll know I brought my heart,
What about you? What about you?

I remember when the truth was your eyes
And it's true that the teacher is time
You're so entangled in your delicate deception that you're lying to yourself
I was waiting for an end to the rain,
I was a fool to believe you would change,
I don't need, don't think,
I don't want - anything

For now when I wake up,
I'll know I did enough,
What about you? What about you?
And when time picks us apart,
I'll know I brought my heart,
What about you? What about - what about you?

What about you?
I say what about you?

And when time picks us apart,
I'll know I brought my heart
What about you?
What about, what about you?
