(Verse)
Mind, body, and soul I gave to you
But under pale skin I could see it all 
Now we pass like strangers 
When I would have stood toe to toe with the gods for you

(Verse)
I was naive to everything 
I would've given it all 
But now I've seen your second face 
Can't play the role of the pawn

Every ounce, every ounce of faith 
That I poured into you 
I should've known all along 
But I just played the fool 

(Chorus)
Count every second and every minute 
Time wasted, building up hatred
Chose to ignore the truth 
Refused to face it 

(Verse)
Hanging by the tips of fingers 
For too long I let it linger
I should have cut the rope 
But I chose to live and suffer 

When I should have 
Just run for cover 
Braved the storm 
But it never stopped 

(Chorus)
Count every second and every minute 
Time wasted, building up hatred
Chose to ignore the truth 
Refused to face it 

(Bridge)
Chose to ignore the truth 
Though I knew all along 
Held on for my life 
Afraid to take, afraid to take the fall
