Elite

If I could I'd tell you
(Everything I've done)
If it would make things better
(Everything I've done)
If it could make you see
How little it meant to me
How much I hate what I've become
If it would be good I'd tell you
(Everything I've done)
How much I hate it when you tell me that you're better off alone
How much I hate it when you tell me that my heart is made of stone
How much I hate what I've become
She's there when I panic

She's there When I can't stand it
When I can't stand what I've become
This is a scam I'll tell you
(Everything I've done)
When I can't stand it when you're lying keep it up and I'll explode
When I can't cope with all the rumors that you say have not been told
When I can't cope with growing cold
Nothing is ever easy
Everything's there to deceive me
Whatever could bring us closer
So many things unsaid and undone

I went to that bar
Just to meet up with a friend.
The friend who gets me wasted.
After a while when he hadn't let me down.
I started notice people.
I didn't say a word
But you didn't seem to mind.
I guess it didn't matter.
I thought you were going home
With some other guy.
I guess you found me better.
I felt alone
And you took me home.
You brought me to your mansion.
You told me of your life.

And I forced you into mine.
I think I said too much.
You asked me to stay
I thought I'd stay for a while.
Enough to make me hungry.
I thought I wanted nothing
But I wanted you for life.
You're still here beside me.
We've had our times
Like most lovers do.
Times to think it over.
There's really nothing better
Than to be alone with you.
Whether drunk or whether sober.

In a car
Not her own
Owned by someone called her man for all time
On her way
To a house
To a couple she call sir and dear mom
She's afraid
It's her plan
To reveal the disappointing things she's done
Nicotin
And all the gin
Why can't 30 years of lying be undone
On a chair
Face to face
The achievement of her lifetime is so beautiful
It's OK
Let it out
And I knew she said she knew that we would help her
No one's mad
Only sad
And a heavy weight inside her's gone forever
What is wrong?
You're at home
And she went away to where she always wanted
Something in her died so long ago
I thought she'd never come to know

Oh, if you say that you are over me
Then I guess I'm over you
And if you've found out why it hurts so bad
Then let me find out too

I never learned about the endings
Nobody told me of the truth
No one will last me for a lifetime
No one will ever be like you

And you can tell me stories
Of beauty and of glow
I'll find out when you're lying
But not ever when I am dying

Please, don't be a stranger to this body
Tell it about that sweet embrace
Give it the pleasure to be wanted
Give it whatever love it takes

What if I miss your eyes
What can you give me in return
What can a song like this be doing
What if you hear it and then you turn
Away from all these stories
Of beauty and of glow
You will find out when I'm lying
But not ever when I'm crying
