You're the colour in my hair   That just won't wash out   The fragrance that triggers   A memory of doubt   You're the song   That I hear   That just brings me down   You're the flavour that lingers   Like ashes in my mouth     If you   Build me up   Let me hope   Let me dream   I tear you down   Let you hurt   Let you need     Well I'm not really sure   But I think that I missed it   Don't ask me how   Cause I still don't quite get it   You could blame it on fate   Say I'm a victim of cupid   But I took 24 years   To get this stupid     If you   Place your faith   Give youself   Trust in me   And I use you up   Suck you dry   Let you bleed     Well I'll say that it ain't   But I know that it's through   If you try to blame me I can pin it on you   I"ll run from the truth   Or pretend I don't see it   And I'll say "I love you" and not really mean it     Well I'm not really sure   But I think that I missed it   Don't ask me how cause I still don't quite get it   But I'll push you for answers   Just to see if you'll break   So strike up you're band we'll waltz through it again   Ya, I'll fight the battle   If you fly the banner   I'll hold the nails girl if you swing the hammer   You could call me obsessed   But I still wish I could see ya   Sneakin into your backyard   With these flowers for Ophelia
