The night has come again,
And still, I am alone-
This time more than ever
A feeling I had never felt before
And I don't want to remember
It's taking a hold of me now
You drove in town to see me,
But you turned into a messenger
Oh, with news I never thought would hit my ears
It's now numbing me inside
Me from this life and I,
Want so badly to disappear

Maybe someday I can stand again
Maybe soon, I can learn to wash my hands of this and start anew
But I need you now to mend my heart
Because you're the only one that can keep me alive tonight (tonight [x5])

You're everything to me:
My whole world, entire being,
The one thing I hold true in my life
What made you do this to me?
Did you want me to set you free?
It tears me up inside, every night

Maybe someday I can stand again
Maybe soon, I can learn to wash my hands of this and start anew
But I need you now to mend my heart
Because you're the only one who can keep me alive tonight

And everything will be just fine
(I just wanted to be perfect, I just wanted to be perfect)
And everything will be just fine
(I just wanted to be perfect, I just wanted to be perfect)

Maybe someday I can stand again (and everything will be just fine)
Maybe soon, I can learn to wash my hands of this and start anew
But I need you now to mend my heart (and everything will be just fine)
Because you're the only one that can keep me alive tonight
