Lyrics

Eight Days

I had your heart

But I will never get it back again

I will never get it back again

I ripped it apart

Trying to see if it was made of lead

Trying to see if it was made of lead

United we plan so together we'll fall

And you can't get what you want from me

With your hand in my hand I've never felt this tall

Still you can't get what you want from me

Eight days waiting to hear you say

Nothing really matters at all

I've tried staring through vacant eyes

To see if I could see what's wrong

Please fill this out

In case something happens to go wrong

I can see that it's not my fault

I want to leave, I want to leave, I want to leave

United we plan so together we'll fall

And you can't get what you want from me

With your hand in my hand I've never felt this tall

Still you can't get what you want from me

Eight days waiting to hear you say

Nothing really matters at all

I've tried staring through vacant eyes

To see if I could see what's wrong

I peeled you open and took photographs of your insides

Brings into the focus that this camera could never lie

Eight days waiting to hear you say

Nothing really matters at all

I've tried staring through vacant eyes

To see if I could see what's wrong

Eight days waiting to hear you say

Nothing really matters at all

Cause I've tried staring through vacant eyes

To see if I could see what's wrong
