Into the Night

[Verse 1] If I was a fly And I had a day left ‘til I die I would lay down 'til tomorrow You're clipping my wings I try to win you back With all my words that you know mean nothing [Pre-Chorus 1] You could have believed in me You could have believed in me [Chorus 1] And I saw a tear on a rose And I swept it off for you As I gag on my guts 'Cause I'm watching you give up I'm a tear in the clock As you walk away, I can almost taste the glaze On your lips smacking away Into the night [Verse 2] They say, at least he's my friend And he'll treat you kindly in the end Call me bitter but I'm Brimming with hate for both of you A film is playing in my head Of you fornicating in his bed The satin sheets are ruby red Like your nails that scarred my back, and [Pre-Chorus 2] You could have believed in me, baby You could have believed in me [Chorus 2] And I saw a tear on a rose So I clipped it off for you I'm a fly on a wall And I'm watching you give up I'm a tear in the clock As you walk away, I can almost see a shade Of your blue eyes fading away Into the night [Pre-Chorus 3] You never believed in me But I will believe in me [Chorus 3] Now I take a match to the rose That I gave, my love, to you Won't forgive, won't forget And the rage will lift me up Hope you choke on his tongue As I walk away, I will not watch his hands As they deftly pull you away Into the night Into the night, oh...
