[English]

I don't wanna waste you away

Everything you do is fake

How I'm supposed to feel when it's blurry?

You don't seem to see that it's hurting

Never know when I am not around

I know your good intentions

But you seem to hide them

Conversation's running out of time

I know your good intentions

But I need a promise

Conversation's running out of time

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)

What if I told you to leave?

Would you run back to me?

I could just throw the door in your face now

That's the consequence if you stay out

Better hurry up and speak your mind

I know your good intentions

But you seem to hide them

Conversation's running out of time

I know your good intentions

But I need a promise

Conversation's running out of time

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)

(Good intentions)

(Good, good intentions)
