Feint of Heart - Gasping for Air

Used to take my breath away
Now I'm gasping for air
Searching for the words to say
Desperately, theres no voice here
Something to make this right
Something to get us through the night
Anything to make us stay!

Whoa, this house we built gone up in flames
Pouring gasoline to pass the blame
Self-destruction like a syndrome
This house never felt like home!

Yeah, you never knew what you wanted
But somehow I knew it wasn't me
I bet we could make this work
If we'd hang our heads and pray

But right now we're hanging by strings
Better left, better left to the fray

You used to take my breath away
Now I'm gasping for air
Searching for the words to say
Desperately, theres no voice here
Something to make this right
Something to get us through the night
Anything to make us stay!

Yeah, turn the knife against the time
Destroying memories leaves us fine
Keep the ones when I made you cry
I can't remember the reason why

Yeah, you never knew what you wanted
But somehow I knew it wasn't me
I bet we could make this work
If we'd just hang our heads and pray

This agony is building we've been at this for a while
Just leave me the moment I first managed to make you smile

You used to take my breath away
Now I'm gasping for air
Searching for the words to say
Desperately, theres no voice here
Something to make this right
Something to get us through the night
Anything to make us stay!

The light in your eyes
Once shone so bright
Faded with a simple flicker
Of a flame
Screaming in our heads
Lying silent in the night
Lay burden on my cross
Cause I'll carry the blame

Oh, you took my breath away
Left me gasping for air
Couldn't find the words to say
Why is nothing ever fair?
Nothing could make this right
Nothing could get us through the night
Nothing ever made us stay!
