Matchbook Romance - Stories And Alibies

my eyes burn from these tears
youd think you'd learn over these years
good things won't last forever

so what the hell am I supposed to do
you only wanted the things I couldn't give to you
and you had it all anyway

(chorus)
so take, take everything
and leave me scarmbling
reaching for something that wasn't there
in the first place
(repeat)

tell me I'm wrong when I say
I can't expect you to spend forever with me
