I've seen that chapter in your eyes
It will tear us apart
Something I don't understand
Has taken hold of you and made you less than a man
Now here is open space
That was filled with you
That was filled with you
Solitude is the only answer
To disconnect will be my shelter
Time, is running out on you
Time, won't be abused abused abused abused
If only it were true
I'd be in love with you
If only you cared
I would throw my arms out
I would throw my arms out
You called me a nutter on the phone
You have watched me die
With the secrets you have told
It's the end of us
It's the end of us
Pride, is getting in your way, it's only
Time that can truly say, can say, can say
If only you knew
When you're beaten black and blue
When you come to care
I will throw my arms out
I will throw my arms out...
Arms out
It will tear us apart
Something I don't understand
Has taken hold of you and made you less than a man
Now here is open space
That was filled with you
That was filled with you
Solitude is the only answer
To disconnect will be my shelter
Time, won't be abused abused abused abused
I'd be in love with you
If only you cared
I would throw my arms out
I would throw my arms out
You have watched me die
With the secrets you have told
It's the end of us
It's the end of us
Time that can truly say, can say, can say
When you're beaten black and blue
When you come to care
I will throw my arms out
I will throw my arms out...

The guy's a jerk but she still love's him, and leaving him alone only seems to be the good end of the deal.
A fantastic song. The ep version is good but I love the rawness on the Peel Radio Sessions disc. The rhythm is a bit different too.
Yeah, he's ass who has abused her trust and let her down but she is waiting and hoping she can still forgive him. It's kinda her saying the ball is in your court and time is running out.
