charades Lyrics

Taken back by the hands of time

Pacing around singing lullabies

Trying to catch my own desire

Looking around for your heart's fire

Catching my breath but I cannot breathe

Tasting the love that is in need

Loving you from afar too long

Waiting for you to sing my song

Charades, it's all charades

Why am I standing for this game

Protecting you, saving your face

When all I feel is an empty space

Try and try and try again

You act as if being with me would be a sin

Why do we keep going on

Why even play when the love is all gone

We cannot speak we can't carry on

I'm over this farce it's gone too long

I'm not here to be your friend

I need real emotion

I'm out we're through

I'm finally over you

Lying to my face, saying you care

When I'm alone

With you standing there

Charades, it's all charades

Why am I standing for this game

Protecting you, saving your face

When all my heart feels is an empty space

Leaving my heart and my body in your wake

I'm looking more and more at hate

Times like these that we can't get through

I now know it's all because of you

No more no more charades

I'm over this fucking game

This act I continue to play

I've never been a fan of charades

Charades, it's all a charade

Why am I standing for this game

Protecting you, saving your face

When all my heart feels is an empty space

Charades, it's all a charade

Charades, it's all a charade

This game is over
