[Verse 1]

My only one

My smoking gun

My eclipsed sun

This has broken me down

My twisted knife

My sleepless night

My winless fight

This has frozen my ground



[Chorus]

Stood on the cliffside screaming, “Give me a reason”

Your faithless love’s the only hoax I believe in

Don’t want no other shade of blue but you

No other sadness in the world would do



[Verse 2]

My best laid plan

Your sleight of hand

My barren land

I am ash from your fire



[Chorus]

Stood on the cliffside screaming, “Give me a reason”

Your faithless love’s the only hoax I believe in

Don’t want no other shade of blue but you

No other sadness in the world would do



[Bridge]

You know I left a part of me back in New York

You knew the hero died so what’s the movie for?

You knew it still hurts underneath my scars

From when they pulled me apart

You knew the password so I let you in the door

You knew you won so what’s the point of keeping score?

You knew it still hurts underneath my scars

From when they pulled me apart

But what you did was just as dark

(Ah, ah, ah)

Darling, this was just as hard

As when they pulled me apart



[Outro]

My only one

My kingdom come undone

My broken drum

You have beaten my heart

Don’t want no other shade of blue but you

No other sadness in the world would do
