I've been thinking 00:00

Was it all a different scene in my head? 00:10

Ooh 00:13

You've got powers 00:16

You instructed all the demons instead 00:18

Mmm 00:22

Ooh, everyone sees a man so tall, so perfect, they said 00:24

Yeah, you've got ambition 00:31

I thought we would grow in time, I wasn't prepared 00:33

Now, am I forgiven? 00:39

Oh 00:41

You look like you're so damn scared 00:42

I don't really think you care 00:44

You know, you know that our time is through 00:46

It's over when I leave, you said 00:50

We're never gonna meet again 00:53

You played your game, it was all for you 00:55

Ooh, ooh 00:59

Ooh, ooh 01:01

Ooh, ooh 01:03

It's all for you 01:05

Is it always just a stand-in for a man that can't heal? 01:07

Ooh 01:13

I've got arrows, am I shooting through the sky for us still 01:15

Na, na, na 01:22

And I have a spent a year, wondering if I had all of the blame 01:24

Ah, yeah 01:30

And love's a bitter fruit if you choose to remain in your shame 01:32

But you couldn't listen, no 01:38

You look like you're so damn scared 01:41

I don't really think you care 01:43

You know, you know that our time is through 01:45

It's over when I leave, you said 01:49

We're never gonna meet again 01:51

You played your game, it was all for you 01:54

Ooh, ooh 01:58

Ooh, ooh 02:00

Ooh, ooh 02:02

It's all for you 02:04

Ooh, ooh 02:06

Ooh, ooh 02:08

Ooh, ooh 02:11

It's all for you 02:12

Kneeling at your temple, love was accidental 02:14

Singing bruises 02:19

I was foolish 02:21

Thinking I was careful, losing every battle 02:23

Singing bruises 02:27

I was foolish 02:29

No hands, no rush 02:31

No touch, no crime 02:33

No blood, no love 02:36

I'm doing it all for you 02:38

No hands, no rush 02:40

No touch, no crime 02:42

No blood, no love 02:44

I'm doing it all for you 02:46

You look like you're so damn scared 02:48

I don't really think you care 02:51

(Don't care) 02:52

You know, you know that our time is through 02:53

(You know that our time is) 02:55

It's over when I leave, you said 02:57

We're never gonna meet again 02:59

You played your game, it was all for you 03:01

I said, so long 03:04

I said, so long 03:08

I said, so long 03:09

It's all for you 03:11

I said, so long 03:14

I said, so long 03:16

I said, so long 03:18

It's all for you 03:19

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I've been thinking

Was it all a different scene in my head?

Ooh

You've got powers

You instructed all the demons instead

Mmm

Ooh, everyone sees a man so tall, so perfect, they said

Yeah, you've got ambition

I thought we would grow in time, I wasn't prepared

Now, am I forgiven?

You look like you're so damn scared

I don't really think you care

You know, you know that our time is through

It's over when I leave, you said

We're never gonna meet again

You played your game, it was all for you

Ooh, ooh

It's all for you

Is it always just a stand-in for a man that can't heal?

Ooh

I've got arrows, am I shooting through the sky for us still

Na, na, na

And I have a spent a year, wondering if I had all of the blame

Ah, yeah

And love's a bitter fruit if you choose to remain in your shame

But you couldn't listen, no

You look like you're so damn scared

I don't really think you care

You know, you know that our time is through

It's over when I leave, you said

We're never gonna meet again

You played your game, it was all for you

Ooh, ooh

It's all for you

Ooh, ooh

It's all for you

Kneeling at your temple, love was accidental

Singing bruises

I was foolish

Thinking I was careful, losing every battle

Singing bruises

I was foolish

No hands, no rush

No touch, no crime

No blood, no love

I'm doing it all for you

No hands, no rush

No touch, no crime

No blood, no love

I'm doing it all for you

You look like you're so damn scared

I don't really think you care

(Don't care)

You know, you know that our time is through

(You know that our time is)

It's over when I leave, you said

We're never gonna meet again

You played your game, it was all for you

I said, so long

It's all for you

I said, so long

It's all for you
