So many wasted days   Come and go like ocean waves   He hit me like a freight train   And now I can't get off my face      How could I have been so polite   To simply let her die   Who am I to spread my fingers    After you has filled my hands   Watching the moments slip through like desert sand      Respect her ignorance   Just in case she takes offense   The darkness that's killing her   Well that is just not my concern      How could I have been so polite    To simply let her die   Who am I to spread my fingers    After you have filled my arms   Watching the moments slip through like desert sand      You're not guaranteed tomorrow   You're not guaranteed tomorrow      How could I have been so polite    To simply let you die   Who am I to spread my fingers    After you have filled my arms   Watching the moments slip through like desert sand
