If I have to say that word one more time, I think I'll cry
If I even feel the urge, I'll just think of you on that tiny isle

They say that love won't fade and it will never die
They don't say it changes shape 'til you don't recognize it

What is this thing? I feel it clawing at the walls inside my chest
Some days I want to put it all to rest
But it won't die

Could I ever feel this low on my own? I can't say
But I know what I think I'm owed
I lift that load everyday

'Cause they told me "love won't fade and it will never die"
They didn't say "it changes shape 'til you don't recognize it"

Alone again
I am walking by myself beside the sea
I feel all the terror and the joy you put in me
I'm stuck in your eye, baby

So what am I supposed to do when I look at you and I don't know?
If I thought that we were through, if I really knew, I think I'd go

But I know my love won't fade and it won't ever die
But you sure as hell changed shape and I don't recognize you
And I hate myself
I am a monster, I am sick, I am not well
I have so many things to say and no one to tell
I have lost my mind

And I just want to hear that word one more time before I die
And I want it from a certain mouth, dropped in my hands like a prize
That love can help me change and bring me back to life
And let me see myself through someone else's eyes

What can I do? Nothing but wait until I meet myself in you
I am so sorry I was awful and untrue
Sweetheart, goodbye.
