The nightmare lies in the mourning
When the birds are bleeding
And you hope the day will come
But you’re never gonna live this down

Wish it away with the blame
You could just stop breathing now
You didn’t want it enough
You didn’t want it enough

And you tap and you cut
And you start with the heavy breathing
You’re parallel to the dark
But they’re still not leaving

But you try and talk
You’ll do anything but
you’re never gonna keep it down
Don’t leave me now, don’t leave me now

You know it didn’t have to be this way
you know it didn’t have to be
But it’s the end of the line
So goodbye

Can you hear me
Can you see me
Well it’s the end of the line
So goodbye

Now you talk to yourself
And you wonder why nothing ever changes
When you fall so far, so fast
Who you gonna blame this on

I don’t care anymore in the morning
When the birds start bleeding now
And it’s all the same
It's all the same

I was faced to the wall
With the mirror, with the mirror crashing
And you stood so tall but you fall
And you’re never gonna get back up
You didn’t want it enough
You didn’t want it enough
(Am I central now, am I central now I was central how)

You know it didn’t have to be this way
you know it didn’t have to be
But it’s the end of the line
So goodbye

Can you hear me
Can you see me
Well it’s the end of the line
So goodbye

No one loves you
Up above you
No one hears you
No one sees you

No one loves you
Up above you
No one hears you
No one sees you

You know it didn’t have to be this way
you know it didn’t have to be
But it’s the end of the line
So goodbye

Can you hear me
Can you see me
Well it’s the end of the line
So goodbye

    General Comment:these are the official lyrics from the cd booklet:

    The nightmare lies in the mourning
    when the birds are bleeding
    and you hope the day will come
    but you’re never gonna live this down

    wish it away with the blame
    you could just stop breathing now
    you didn’t want it enough
    and you tap and you cut
    and you start with the heavy breathing
    you’re parallel to the dark
    but they’re still not leaving
    but you try and talk
    you’ll do anything but you’re never gonna keep it down
    don’t leave me now, don’t leave me now

    chorus:
    it didn’t have to be this way
    you know it didn’t have to be
    but it’s the end of the line
    so goodbye

    can you hear me
    can you see me
    well it’s the end of the line
    so goodbye

    now you talk to yourself
    and you wonder why nothing ever changes
    how you’re gonna fall so far so fast
    who you gonna blame this on
    i don’t care anymore in the morning
    when the birds start bleeding now
    and it’s all the same

    i was faced to the wall
    with the mirror crashing down
    and you stood so tall
    but you fall and you’re never gonna get back up
    you didn’t want it enough
    am i central now, am i central now i was central how

    chorus:
    it didn’t have to be this way
    you know it didn’t have to be
    but it’s the end of the line
    so goodbye

    can you hear me
    can you see me
    well it’s the end of the line
    so goodbye

    no one loves you
    up above you
    no one hears you
    no one sees you

    no one loves you
    up above you
    no one hears you
    no one sees you

    chorus:
    it didn’t have to be this way
    you know it didn’t have to be
    but it’s the end of the line
    so goodbye

    can you hear me
    can you see me
    well it’s the end of the line
    so goodbye
