I stand by the bed watching her sleep   Trouble in mind   Still waters run cloudy and deep   Down to the core of our small world   Sure as the sun burns under dawn   There comes a time      A time when the last straw breaks   A bad choice turns easy to make   When nothing seems quite right or wrong      When she's gone   Who won't believe   That she put me out of her dark misery   Bullets made of ice leave cold evidence   I can bury the rope but not the loose ends   When she's gone      We danced to the edge flirting with hell   When we turned back   She lost her way stumbled and fell far down   And she never looked up   Closing my eyes isn't enough   To ease her pain      Maybe I should turn and run   From what I have become   Maybe one day I'll be that strong      Chorus      Is there another way out   Look back to the beginning again   Forget about where you've been   My sanity I will defend   The past has found the future   Latched on like a cancer      Chorus      The past has found the future   latched on like a cancer   There is no answer, there is no strategy
