i look into your eyes and i see the empty sky   the sky that holds nothing for us but promises and lies   the rain is falling faster now and washing me away   i've got to tell you soon now it must be today      we stand on this crowded street   all alone in utter defeat   we promise to each other but we suck it all up   our bittersweet words are all but stuck      you and all your candy promises   all your ice cream wishes for me   how i wish i could twist you and bend you to see   to make you know the truth of me      and i can see you clearly as the fog drifts away   my eyes are burning, heart is yearning   take your pain away   and you can hide behind that mask all that you want   that mask of sweat and tears that you galantly flaunt      but sooner or later you just can't hold on   and i can see you drowning with   the coming of the dawn         you and all your candy promises   all your ice cream wishes for me   how i wish i could twist you and bend you to see   to make you know the truth of me      but wait you said one more time let me speak   i've got so much to say and i can't hold on   so i sit on my hands and i open my ears   while you carry on and hand me your fears      you and all your candy promises   all your ice cream wishes for me   how i wish i could twist you and bend you to see   to make you know the truth of me      but me and all my bitter sardonicness   we can melt all of your sugar lies away   how i wish i could twist you and bend you to see   to make you know the truth of me
