lyrics
Mother always said it would be so easy
Father always said when you know you know
I believe love don't always feel like fireworks, but I just feel so bloody all alone.
Burned up all the bridges and I built my island
Covered up the doors just to see what's left
I believe love don't always feel like I do, But I just feel so bloody all alone.
So I'm waiting for my love to come along
So I'm waiting for now
Where do I fit in this god forsaken plan
Where do I fit for now?
Well it burns to have a partner who just wasted all your gains
It occurs to me that likely that's the whole reason you came, so I found solace
And you found out
I said I'm sorry
But not enough to pay my penance to the piper, my only friend
Father always said when you know you know
I believe love don't always feel like fireworks, but I just feel so bloody all alone.
Burned up all the bridges and I built my island
Covered up the doors just to see what's left
I believe love don't always feel like I do, But I just feel so bloody all alone.
So I'm waiting for my love to come along
So I'm waiting for now
Where do I fit in this god forsaken plan
Where do I fit for now?
Well it burns to have a partner who just wasted all your gains
It occurs to me that likely that's the whole reason you came, so I found solace
And you found out
I said I'm sorry
But not enough to pay my penance to the piper, my only friend
