Second Love Lyrics

Day after day
Nothing's changed you're far away
But I need you to know that I can't sleep anymore
by the nights
Night after night
The stars are shining so bright
Though our pain is larger than the universe tonight

I want you to know I can't sleep anymore
By the nights
By the nights
Day after day I want you to say
that you're mine
You are mine

Year after year
Tear after tear
I feel like my heart will break in two
You came like a wind
I couldn't defend
You cut my heart so deeply the scars won't mend

I'll never believe in love anymore
After this
After this
Can never change or rearrange
What we lost
What we lost

Time after time
I am wasting my time
Living in a past where I was strong
But now I am gone
I leave no shadow when I'm alone
I'll stay forever in my dreams where you are near

I want you to know I can't sleep anymore
By the nights
By the nights
Day after day I want you to say
That you're mine
I want you to know I can't sleep anymore
By the nights
By the nights
Day after day I want you to say
That you're mine
You are mine

Beyond The Pale

Day after day 
Nothing's changed you're far away
But I need you to know that I can't sleep anymore 
by the nights
Night after night 
The stars are shining so bright
Though our pain is larger than the universe tonight

I want you to know I can't sleep anymore
By the nights 
By the nights
Day after day I want you to say 
that you're mine 
You are mine

Year after year 
Tear after tear 
I feel like my heart will break in two 
You came like a wind
I couldn't defend
You cut my heart so deeply the scars won't mend

I'll never believe in love anymore
After this 
After this 
Can never change or rearrange
What we lost
What we lost

Time after time 
I am wasting my time
Living in a past where I was strong
But now I am gone 
I leave no shadow when I'm alone
I'll stay forever in my dreams where you are near

I want you to know I can't sleep anymore 
By the nights 
By the nights 
Day after day I want you to say 
That you're mine
I want you to know I can't sleep anymore 
By the nights 
By the nights 
Day after day I want you to say 
That you're mine
You are mine

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Wrote it when he was 15 actually. Pain of Salvation was formed when he was 11 though, though they were named something different then...like 'Reality' or something, but I'm not entirely sure.

No doubt the deepest kind of heartbreak though. Beautiful song...perfect to listen to in times of a break-up to a girl you loved...as I can unfortunately relate to absolutely at the moment.

Daniel Gildenlöw...please have my children...

I hate to sound like a love sick teenager, but this is the first time I've been so crazy over a girl. This girl likes me, and I like her, but we cannot be together due to other reasons.

This song makes me cry V_V
