[Verse One] The tears fight to come out But I just hum and lock them up I'm the perfect one But still treated like common scum [Chorus] You brought out the best in me Then turned away singing I'm sorry I lost my mind Tried to lie cause without you I'm doomed to die I scream into the night But all that comes out is a strangled sigh [Verse Two] I saw the signs Chose to ignore them and filter through the lies I've been finding lost shadows And I stitch them up so they're ready for the gallows A piano sings But my ears are numb to anything but weeps [Pre-Chorus] Did you know? Did you care? You took my heart and sang "alls fair in the name of love, dulcet Dove" [Chorus] You brought out the best in me Then turned away singing I'm sorry I lost my mind Tried to lie cause without you I'm doomed to die I scream into the night But all that comes out is a strangled sigh [Verse Three] I called I reached But you never looked back Gave you my all And regretted it through the fall [Verse Four] I've spent my whole life Looking up and thinking I'm just a waste of stolen time Maybe in that other life I could've avoided the things I've done to lead me here Wallowing in my own pain and fear [Pre-Chorus] Did you know? Did you care? You took my heart and sang alls fair in the name of love, dulcet Dove [Chorus] You brought out the best in me Then turned away singing I'm sorry I lost my mind Tried to lie cause without you I'm doomed to die I scream into the night But all that comes out is a strangled sigh [Outro] I'm tired I'm weary And the world just keeps leering When I looked back you were gone So I guess you were right about one thing All fair in the name of love, my Dulcet Dove mmmmmmmmmm (alls fair in the name of love) ooohhhhhhhhhhh (Take me now I'm ready to go) ooohhhhhhhh [Outro] Throw my coffin in the sea And sing a hym calling me crazy And if you should ever step by know I'm dancing in the sky And laughing till I cry [Instrumental]
