I'm the setting sun
behind the trees
The saddest one you've seen
I've been burning holes and
breaking dreams
And I regret it
I'm fixing things I've broken
It's not as easy
as it used to be
I'm throwing temper tantrums,
I used to settle
but now I make a scene
You can't believe
I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade
and watch you change in
To someone I can't face
I can't replace
I can't replace you
You're the swirling
wind above the sea
The maddest storm they've seen
Now your breaking waves and
smashing dreams
And you can't help it
You're drowning streets and
stranding a million people
You're starting out with me
You're crashing down from anger
You stop and settle
and now you're sound asleep
And so serene
I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade
and watch you change in
To someone I can't face
I can't replace
I can't replace you
And when the sun is down
And when the skies are calm
you'll see calm we'll be
Wait for the cycle
We'll repeat our same mistakes
same mistakes
The same mistakes
we've always made
I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade
and watch you change in
To someone I can't face
I can't replace
I can't replace you replace you
I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade
and watch you change in
To someone I can't face
I can't replace
I can't replace you
I said I'd never walk away
