[Verse 1]

It wasn't really in my hands

Although I'll be first to concede, I felt it pass

And now I'm running out of

The ways that I would do things and pull strings

So here I can admit to what I want

And now I'm here to haunt

Back what I knew

What I do, how I knew you

[Chorus]

Like excalibur, I wait for my sword to be taken away

So I won't know anymore pain, okay? That's my one escape

Or so I think I know - that's how the story goes

In truth I'm only so-so on the prose, though I won't be a no-show

Somewhere there is pain, but it's somewhere far away

I don't know how to start saying this, so

I'm fine with a whining crowd sometimes

But I'd lie if I said I wouldn't want to die

[Verse 2]

It's never really over, though, you know?

I feel likе I can't ignore this

And even though it's finally about timе to move on

I've foregone

Anything to help with this false pain

I can't invoke in vain

Anything, anyone I can call

I've palled

[Chorus]

Like excalibur, I wait for my hero to come and break me

Away from this ill life I've won, that's what I want

But it's set in stone, and so I'm on my own, I'm fine living lies

To pass through your earphones, so I won't be alone

Somewhere there is pain, but it's somewhere far away

I don't know how to start saying this, so

I'm fine with a whining crowd sometimes

But I'd lie if I said I wouldn't want to die

[Outro]

(Somewhere there is pain, but it's somewhere far away)

(I don't know how to start saying this, so)

(I'm fine with a whining crowd sometimes)

(But I'd lie if I said I wouldn't want to die)
