lyrics

You weren't there, when I was here
You didn't care--that much was clear
That, and you just left me all alone
The pain, neglect and emptiness
And you'd forget, but then confess
That sometimes it's too hard for you to phone

Tell me, are we okay or are we not?
Tell me, is it even worth a shot?

I told you once, I told you twice
I pleaded, then to my surprise
I finally could tell you I wanted more
You still pronounced we were alright
And plain refused to make a fight
Is there even something worth fighting for?

Tell me, is it easy to get by?
Are you far too lazy to even try?

It's not working anymore
And I don't think that it's worth it anymore
We're out of time

Tell me, where's the effort that you made?
Problems don't just simply go away

It wouldn't last, not for a bit
We shared the past--and that was it.
You had your chance but now I'm really gone.
