Lyrics:

You were like a gun shot, in the silence of the night
Like a fire burning red hot, on the surface of the ice
But now you're blending in, can't tell where I fit in
To the new ways you spend, all of your time
 
Don't think I'll ever know
I'm sure I'll never know
Or I would've by now

Thought I was a wise man, a fountain of advice
But I've been a blind man, when it comes to my own life
Cause I can't hardly see what's right in front of me
I'm trying way too hard to be, all that you need
 
And I'm never gonna be
No I'm never gonna be
Or I would've by now

I've been holding on too tight, while my knuckles all turn white
From gripping to burnt out dreams, that I want to reignite
But it just seems much easier, than ever trying to start over
But if these dreams were coming true, they would've by now

I've been a soldier on the battlefield of you
But the war's been over -- I'm just fighting against the truth
And I've been on the front line for such a long time
You've won your fights and I lost mine, so here's the bottom line

You were never gonna love me
You're never gonna love me
Or you would've by now
