lyrics

Verse 1
Take my hand, guide me through these darkened lands
Be my strength, I’ll be your man
Hold me close, whisper all your darkest fears
Hold me close, I’ll dry your tears
Stay with me, after everything we’ve done
We just know it can’t be won

Pre-Chorus
And I see it’s over, but I’ll still feel the same
I could be your lover, not the one that got away
But I’ve seen us change, we’ve gone so far
It’s over now and you’ve left your scars on me
There’s another side to me

Chorus
I find the way, the way you lie to me
So hard to take, there’s another side to me
I find it strange, that you only lie to me
So hard to take, there’s another side to me

Verse 2
I will try, taking everything I know
Do my best, and try to grow
Change for me, not to prove that you were right
But to show that I can fight
Every time, we would list all of our fears
Losing you was always near

Pre-Chorus 2
And I see you moved on, you were quick enough to change
After everything you told me, in so many different ways
But I should of guessed, this ain’t a first
You’ve broken hearts, more than any I will see
Just another lie to me

Bridge
I find the way, you lie so strange
I find the way, you lie so strange

Pre-Chorus 3
And I see it’s over, but you wanted me to change
After all that I’ve been thinking, I can see that you’re deranged
But it’s gone too far, we had our time
I’m moving on, clear of all your lies to me
There’s another side to me

Chorus
I find the way, the way you lie to me
So hard to take, there’s another side to me
I find it strange, that you only lie to me
So hard to take, there’s another side to me
