You don't have to say you need me

We've been down that road before

Need always leads to trust, you know,

And trust is a game we don't play well.

And you don't have to say you want me

Wanting makes you weak and pale

Blink once if you want to be near me

Twice if you'd rather i live in hell.

I would beg you not to leave me but you're here

I would tell you to walk out on me today

But you're half a world away.



You don't have to say you forgive me

I don't wanna make you a liar

You've said it so many times before

Thus quoth the raven "nevermore."

And you don't have to say you love me

That's a fire you've come to hate

It used to warm your throat like wine

But now you're burning my valentines.

I would beg you not to leave me but you're here

I would tell you to walk out on me today

But you're half a world away.



Oh you're half a world

You're half a world away

Oh you're half a world

You're half a world away



I would beg you not to leave me but you're still here.

I would tell you to walk out on me today

But you're half a world away.



Oh you're half a world

You're half a world away

Oh you're half a world

You're half a world away
