Lyrics
I tell myself i'm finally over you. But deep inside where feelings hide, I know that it's not true. My friends say it gets easier, just wait another day. Is there something I can do to kill this pain? Is there something I can say to make you stay? Is there something i can give away, a song that i can play, is there something i can do to kill this pain. I see you on the street with your new man
i say hello, you're looking well, we're introduced as friends. Don't patronize, your eyes can't lye, it's hard to hide your shame. Is there something i can do to kill this pain. And late at night, i'm staring at the ceiling, this big old bed won't feel the same. Damage done, it's time to start the healing, and it wont help knowing whose to blame. Well morning comes and here we are again. It's hard to face another day, when nothing good remains. I'm sure you must remember how i hate to play these games. It there something i can do to kill this pain?
