Secondhand Serenade - Like A Knife (Lyrics)

"Like A Knife" - Secondhand Serenade

---------------------------------------
---------------------------------------

To all of those who share their stories; reading your comments makes me wish I could help you. Whatever you do, don't give up on the one you love.

---------------------------------------
---------------------------------------

I dream a lot, I know you say
I've got to get away.
"The world is not yours for the taking"
Is all you ever say.
I know I'm not the best for you,
But promise that you'll stay.
Cause if I watch you go,
You'll see me wasting, you'll see me wasting away

Cause today, you walked out of my life
Cause today, your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life.

Goodbyes are meant for lonely people standing in the rain
And no matter where I go it's always pouring all the same.
These streets are filled with memories
Both perfect and in pain
And all I wanna do is love you
But I'm the only one to blame.

Cause today, you walked out of my life
Cause today, your words felt like a knife
I'm not living this life.

But what do I know, if you're leaving
All you did was stop the bleeding.
But these scars will stay forever,
These scars will stay forever
And these words they have no meaning
If we cannot find the feeling
That we held on to together
Try your hardest to remember

Stay with me,
Or watch me bleed,
I need you just to breathe.

Cause today, you walked out of my life
(Stay with me, or watch me bleed)
Cause today, your words felt like a knife
(I need you just to breathe.)
I'm not living this life.

I've known this boy for three years, not knowing much about love or any of that. he was a friend of a friend and a friend of an enemy. She is still my best friend, the enemy is not an enemy anymore, but I just don't know about him. The other day, it hit me that..... I like him. He's a great person, but has a girlfriend, who is... well pretty. and then there's me. I hope she knows how good she has it. I won't ask for likes, becuz what would I do anyway? I never got my happy ending.

I've never had a boyfriend, but this song reminds me of my best friend that left me in the dirt when I needed her the most.
