Cauterize - Why This Last Dance lyrics

rate me

As we dance

Here in this empty apartment

Echoes of laughter

Will long live here after

Put your memories in boxes

Cut all your losses

Romance left this place long ago

If these walls could talk

Then they'd tell me its time to go

You gave this place so much colour

I don't know why I did not see that before

You gave life to this place

Without you it's empty space

As we kiss,

Knowing that it's our last one

Put sheets on the mattress,

Sleep hasn't found us

Tear the curtains from the window let the world see this last dance

And now,

What was left for us

Turn all the lights out

Lock the door behind us

You gave this place so much colour,

I don't know why I did not see that before

You gave life to this place,

Without you it's empty space

Someone else can hang pictures over the holes in the wall

Duck and take cover from the screams in the hall

Sing you to sleep when you're hurt from the fall

And somehow I will miss this all

Lets burn this place down

Scatter the ashes

Paint it with gasoline

Start throwing matches

Somewhere in this wreck remains dying love

You gave this place so much colour

I don't know why I did not see that before

You gave life to this place

Without you it's empty space

Someone else can hang pictures over the holes in the wall

Duck and take cover from the screams in the hall

Sing you to sleep when you're hurt from the fall

And somehow I will miss this all

As we dance

Knowing that its our last one

If these walls could talk

They'd tell us it's time to go
