Assumptions

Give me a second reason not to love you All the things you said are almost not true I’m sorry, but I’d rather drift away someday It’s like you don’t mind me being led astray The winter wind is blowing… California’s sun kept glowing… How does this amaze me so? There’s so much things you don’t know… Too much things you don’t know… It’s not too late for forgiveness It’s not too late It’s not too late After the clock strikes eight… Assumptions caught like bait I thought you were aware of the pain Assumptions douse me with bitter rain Let the doubts fade into happiness Atmosphere’s as cold as the abyss Come catch me as I fall away… Come snatch me or I’ll be a dismal day… Don’t say it doesn’t matter anymore Don’t scare me to death, unfeeling floor You are a stranger in this land Know I understand where you stand But not enough to make it through The dark and its shade of blue The colorful leaves of autumn are vanishing… The aftermath of our past lives are diminishing… How did the truth set me free? Where do I flee? There’s so much things I’ve missed out on frankly It’s not too late for forgiveness It’s not too late It’s not too late After the clock strikes eight… Assumptions caught like bait I thought you were aware of the pain Assumptions douse me with bitter rain Let the doubts fade into happiness Atmosphere’s as cold as the abyss Come catch me as I fall away… Come snatch me or I’ll be a dismal day… Don’t say it doesn’t matter anymore Don’t scare me to death, unfeeling floor You are a stranger in this land Know I understand where you stand But not enough to make it through The dark and its shade of blue Time and time again, I don’t have time Time and time again, I’ll make the time What about you? Where are you? Will you keep your promises true? Who knew you deserted me I’ve figured that out recently No need to fret No time for dread Very soon, I bet Karma will be your bed Karma will take its toll – it will rule! All the things you said has been told Karma will make you look like a fool You once made me content with hope’s hold I thought you were aware of the pain Assumptions douse me like bitter rain Let the doubts fade into happiness Atmosphere’s as cold as the abyss I thought you were aware that I’m insane Assumptions drown you like a hurricane Let the disputes alter into gladness Your endless fears reduce me to madness Give me a second reason to trust you Your actions meant you left me in the dark’s blue Now, hope is on the other line, Which means I’ll be doing fine What about you? Haven’t you a clue? Isn’t it about time you get out of your darkness and its blues? Isn’t it about time you erase the assumptions of our past rues?
