Pretty you are, enough to be in magazines,
but I know and you know you're worth more than that to me.
But my desire to kiss you has completely diminished,
due to the fact that your lips on lips just might be your foot on my throat,
holding back the hidden "I love you"'s in all the songs that I've ever wrote.

And these waves have come to suck you in and steal you away from me yet again.
To drown everything important to be sure you forgot about me...

To remain embraced by something stranger than me, warmer than me, better than me.
More suitable to best accommodate your needs.
And the moment he touches your face, caresses your body, just to feel
I will break at the knees,
And I will combust, I will, I will...

And these waves have come to suck you in, and steal you away from me yet again.
To drown everything important to be sure you forget about me.

So it won't hurt so bad to see you love again.
So it won't hurt so bad to watch as you forget about me...

    This song is just as heart felt and intense song as the other non-acoustic songs. Great song empowered with such emotion of hurt in attempt to getting over a past love sung from a completely torn and broken singer. Awesome song and something most can relate to once in our lives at the very least.

    Ughh, this song hurts to listen to it. It reminds me so much of what I used to have, and what it has become now...

    "due to the fact that your, lips on my lips just might as well be your foot on my throat" these are the correct lyrics. beautiful song, and beautifulxgoodbye is right. it really hurts to listen to this song, because everyone can interpret this as their lost relationship.

    Yeah I wasn't sure about the " And these waves have come to suck you in, " part... On some websites is says that the lyrics are: " His swells have come to suck you in, " But I don't think that makes sense...
