Cassandra With Brando Hair

these four letters carved we were crossing out our whole lives.
she left nothing but the miles that i can get apart from her.
we\'re split in two by twilight, it\'s why i never will write to you,
but she doesn\'t understand.
what were we waiting for?
what have i waited for?
the years have been so long,
the nights have been too hard.
knowing the way she feels is killing me inside just means...
nothing, it doesn\'t change a thing.
\"it\'s somehow better this way, I\'m sure you\'ll see that someday,\"
i\'ll never understand her.
what were we waiting for?
what have i waited for?
the years have been so long,
the nights have been too hard.
if we turned away tonight and all the stars fell,
they\'d find some way to dig in their claws and pull me down.
maybe in time we\'ll want to come back and pick up their pieces,
but she won\'t ever let that phase her again.
this has to be the millionth time (but i stopped counting long ago)
when your beating heart has kept me lying here awake.
the moment we met i knew, from the pauses in your breathing.
this silence marrying us is so unfair.
