OFFSPRING - A Thousand Days lyrics

rate me

Ask me no questions and I'll tell you

I'll tell you no lies

When all is said and done

Does it really matter who's wrong or right

Don't ask me for a reason, I cant explain

Why hurt one other again and again

As I lie bleeding here I still

Still reach for you

<i>[CHORUS]</i>

A thousand days

Have passed away

A thousand days

Were captured in her eyes

Your eyes are open now but you know

It's still hard to see inside

When action and intention

Are two separated things

Now I somehow wish I could explain

Why we hurt one another again and again

Like someone on his dying breath

I still reach for you

<i>[CHORUS]</i>

Forever we've been

Trapped by our hearts

Trapped by our minds

I'd like to leave

I'd like to win at love

But I just can't let it go

And I just can't watch it slipping away

And I just can't let it go

And I just can't stand another minute

Maybe now someday our shattered live

Will mend themselves again

But now a million miles away

I wish I still could

And though I somehow know, I can't explain

Why we hurt one other again and again

Like someone on his dying breath

I still reach for you
