lyrics

It’s in the past
So please don’t ask
She’s not the same
But I know her real name
If I’m a saint
Where’s my prize?
And the tragedy
They pretended I was family, and I believed

Don’t cry, believe me now your symptoms will subside
Girl, and everything is gonna be alright, yeah
No you’re not gonna die not gonna die, no
This too shall pass and then you’ll see I’m right, yeah
Oh how right I was in saying that this too shall pass
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

Though you try
You can’t relate
And though she’s alive
It really feels like she died

Don’t cry, it’s always darkest right before the dawn
Girl, and that which does not kill you makes you strong
Yeah, be careful of the tubing in your arms
Now, and maybe there’s a reason for this all
Reasons for it all don’t quite make sense to me
Now where is she
Now where is she

And the image is burned into my head
You squirming in pain in a hospital bed
Now someone else is in my stead
You may as well be dead

And you asked me if I thought you’d die
I ran from the room to hide my eyes
Now I’m alone to wonder why
Why, why, why did you lie?
You may as well have died
