A Million Ways
I kissed the smile you never wear
A million times
Your eyes still burn from all those tears
Every chance to say goodbye, we miss
We're the ones that turn away from truth
I'll give you a million ways to lie
It's the words that fall faster from a tongue
That never knows which way to fall
I could tell you a million ways to stitch your heart
I could write you thousand lines that sound more broken
Than the record that you cry yourself to sleep to
The door that leads to me was unlocked
But, you kissed the smile that I can't find
A million times, not a thousand less
My throat carries on speaking in a silence
Only no one understands
Everything is every chance we're yet to miss
Farewell to dates marked on calenders
Pictures that show no faces
Just the outline of what should have been
Everything that means so much, will mean so little to us
I would figure out a hundred reasons for these tears
I would be the one to watch our star dissapear
I would carve forever into a story that bleeds more colours
Than the black and white that haunts our dreams
Than a star that falls of display
Like the lights that light up the way
A sorry is never always needed
Between pages
In the night is when we're most awake
My thoughts fade to you
A sorry is not what you need to speak
Three simple words
That can break
Are not what I need to hear
A million ways we'll find to pick each other apart
Until there's nothing left but all the faults
I'll find a million ways,
To get back those moments we've hoped to miss
I will be the one to make us dissapear
A million ways, not a thousand less
I'll promise you a million ways
Of broken hearts and colourless dreams
