what would you sacrifice?
\ntwenty minutes of extra time
\n<\/span>it’s not fair to improvise
\n<\/span>it’s not fair to change to your mind<\/span><\/p>\n

what would you say to me?
\nlines of trouble, tears of doubt
\nwhat would you say to me?
\npurse your lips and force it out<\/p>\n

and now I’m sleeping with the window open<\/em>
\n waiting for that knife to fall<\/em>
\n the pounding rain and the tears unspoken<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em><\/p>\n

what would you exorcise?
\npart of life and part of me
\nit’s not fair to compromise
\nit’s not fair to set them free<\/p>\n

why did you take me in?
\nclothed in pity, grief and pain
\nno sooner was I coloured in,
\nthan I was black and white again<\/p>\n

and now I’m sleeping with the window open<\/em>
\n waiting for that knife to fall<\/em>
\n the pounding rain and the tears unspoken<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em><\/p>\n

what happens when they’re gone?
\ncan you find the strength you need?
\nstart without another one
\nfinish when you start to bleed<\/p>\n

what would you do again?
\nfor forty thousand sleepless nights
\nam I your latest friend?
\nwas that your latest fight?<\/p>\n

now my soul is crushed and my spirit broken<\/em>
\n my throat is dry and my fists are sore<\/em>
\n the pounding rain and the tears unspoken<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em><\/p>\n

now I’m sleeping with the window open<\/em>
\n waiting for that knife to fall<\/em>
\n the pounding rain and the tears unspoken<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em><\/p>\n

the pounding rain and the tears unspoken<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em>
\n you’re not the one who gave it all<\/em><\/p>\n
