SEVER THE TIE

V1

Pictures of you

Fade from my view

I can't understand this game

I walk in the rain

I call out your name

You don't realise what you do

It can't be explained

How complex is this game

All I know is it can't be true

Wander again

Become someone's friend

It's the only way to be true

V2

Picture of me

With you on my knee

Reminds me of the things 

We used to do

But there's no longer a flame

Only ashes remain

So it's best if you find someone new

It can't be explained

How complex is this game

All I know is it can't be true

Wander again

Become someone's friend

It's the only way to be you

BRIDGE

Push me away

Because I'm liable to say

I don't want you to leave

But that I want you to stay

Please just walk out the door

Keep what we had before

Lock it away in your most secret place

Yeah yeah yeah

SOLO

It can't be explained

How complex is this game

All I know is it can't be true

Wander again

Become someone's friend

It's the only way you can be you

V3

Picture this scene

Of what might have been

Years of torment

And unbearable steam

You sever the tie

Before it goes too awry

Well you can savour the memories

Of the times that went by

But it can't be explained

How complex is this game

(Tell me how you feel now)

I feel blue

Wander again

Become someone's friend

Well it's the only way you can be you

Losing you

Losing you

Losing you

Losing you
