DISCLAIMER: Don't own Gone or the song... Duh...
WARNING: Lies spoilers, etc... Duh...
Please Review...
Let me hold you for the last time- Diana doesn't want me near her…
It's the last chance to feel again- I've missed my last chance to be with her…
But you broke me, now I can't feel anything- I've broken her, hurt her so much…
When 'I love you' rings so untrue- She'll never love me…
I can't even convince myself that I deserve her- She isn't a murdering, heartless bastard like me…
When I'm speaking it's the voice of someone else-She knows it more than anyone, I aren't a good person- I can't fake it with her, can't try to charm her- she's seen me at my worst… She knows what I am…
Oh, it tears me up- I love her, and it's my fault she doesn't love me back…
I tried to hold on but it hurts too much- She preferred jumping off a cliff to being with me…
I tried to forgive but it's not enough- I'll never be able to forgive myself for putting her in that position…
To make it all okay-I saved her, but we'll never be okay- because I made her want to kill herself…
You can't play on broken strings- We'll never be okay again…
You can't feel anything- She just sits in her room all day…
That your heart don't want to feel- She doesn't want to love me…
I can't tell you something that ain't real. And to be honest- who would?
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse- She never loved me… Lies were all we had-
How can I give anymore- She was just using me…
When I love you a little less than before? Why do I even try? What am I doing? Sticking with her- she'll never love me back…
Oh, what are we doing? Why do I even stick with him?
We are turning into dust… It's getting old- sticking by him…
Playing house in the ruins of us… Why am I even sat here in- the midnight dark of my room, sat against the wall near the door, in the mansion on an island- thinking about him? Why don't I just go back to Perdido Beach?
Running back through the fire- But after all I let Caine do- kill them, steal their food, cut their electricity, burn down half the town…
When there's nothing left to say to them, no words that'll convince them to forgive me…
It's like chasing the very last train- when it's too late, they hate my guts- I'm Caine Soren's "girlfriend", too late…
Oh, it tears me up- It's tearing me in half, I tried to hold on but it hurts too much…
I tried to forgive but it's not enough-I'll never be able to forgive him fully, ever…
To make it all okay… I'll never be able to say I love him again…
You can't play on broken strings- We can't be together…
You can't feel anything- He's a heartless bastard that kills kids our age or younger without thinking-
That your heart don't want to feel- How can he ever love someone?
I can't tell you something that ain't real- I can't love him…
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse- What am I thinking?
How can I give anymore- I love her, she loves me- she just hates what I've become.
When I love you a little less than before? She knows me more than anyone- but she has stuck by me even though she knows what I am…
But we're running through the fire- We've been together through everything… All the bad times, all the good moments…
When there's nothing left to save… And I'll be dammed if I don't try one last time…
It's like chasing the very last train… I'll take one more chance on what we have… I'll run to her room…
When we both know it's too late, too late- Who am I kidding? I stop just before I knock the door…
You can't play on broken strings- She won't want to hear me and she'll be asleep now…
You can't feel anything… I slide down the wall next to the door to think about all I've done…
That your heart don't want to feel… Does he know I'm awake and thinking about him… Does he know as he sits against the wall that I'm on the other side? So how can I give anymore? But after all he's done, how can I love him? I know why- he's caring, but in his own twisted way…
I can't tell you something that ain't real… Does he know I can't love him, that I don't-
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse- But I do love him… I can't lie- all I want, more than anything in the entire world, is for him to come through that door and hold me forever…
When I love you a little less than before? How can she love me- knowing all that I've done…
Oh, you know that I love you a little less than before… She'll never forgive me… I'll have to change to be with her…
Let me hold you for the last time… He'll have to change to be with me, but will he ever manage it? Is Caine Soren capable of true love? There's so many walls- every bad thing he's ever done is keeping us apart...
It's the last chance… For now I'm happy just sat against the wall with her in the next room…
to feel again… For now I'm happy sat with every one of these walls between us, hoping he's got a sledgehammer to break through to me.
