I: This Time

see part 2 and part 3 of 3
You've heard the rumours
About my best friend
So have I
Now he's late again
It was always work
He couldn't get through
I sit and wait
Wondering what to do

  This time
  It's gone too far
  No more tears
  No more scars
  I don't know why
  We persevered
  This time
  It stops right here

Katie never liked him
She never said why
You deserve better
She said with a sigh
(But) Who's she to talk
With all her love life
I should call her now
And apologise

  This time
  It's gone too far
  No more tears
  No more scars
  I don't know why
  We persevered
  This time
  It stops right here

    Why don't the cops
    Bust down this door
    Secure the scene
    Pick me up off the floor
    Say I'm not the first
    He's hurt like this
    He's been around
    He's broken hearts before

  This time
  It's gone too far
  No more tears
  No more scars
  I don't know why
  We persevered
  This time
  It stops right here

I'm not tired
I could rage all night
But there's nobody here
No one here to fight
