Lyrics

TURNING INTO YOU

Look, there?s another piece of me
Laying on the ground
I?m turning into you
I can?t help it

All I am is what you were
And nothing more
Can ever betray you

Hope for the best expect the worst
Another chance to fail
I?m turning into you
And I miss you

Love was one step closer now
I can?t believe
What were you thinking?

I?m turning into you
Nothing?s left here

Yesterday and everything
That came before
All is forgotten
