Tristiania - Clockwork Midnight lyrics

The last day I had with you

I yelled right to your face

I screamed and sobbed and stomped my foot

And called you a disgrace

It's not fair to give me freedom

Something I want the most

And then to take it away

Like it was some stupid little game we're playing


You say one thing

And then expect me to do another

Say something is bad

And then ask me to do it


Oh, how wrong was I

Oh, how wrong was I

I shouldn't have chosen to lose you

Oh, how wrong was I


The day they stormed in our oasis and took you away

I thought that my life was ruined and that it'd stay that way

That nothing would ever make sense again, that I'd never get the chance to say

I'm sorry, please give me the chance to start again


The next day, I came back to the spot where I had lost you

The missing posters were everywhere and they had your face

On all of them, that face that I had grown to love and then throw away

Like it was something to be discarded some day


The police, they asked me everything

I had nothing to say

They mentioned Clockwork Midnight and then I knew, I knew the way

Back to you was full of danger, but I owe it to you

I never should have treated you as just something to use


Oh, how wrong was I

Oh, how wrong was I

I shouldn't have chosen to lose you

Oh, how wrong was I


The day they stormed in our oasis and took you away

I thought that my life was ruined and that it'd stay that way

That nothing would ever make sense again, that I'd never get the chance to say

I'm sorry, please give me the chance to start again


I'd do anything to redo that day

To give myself the chance to ask you to sit down and explain

Why you did that to me instead of me getting upset

And staining everything we had with shades of regret


Those endless hours curled up beside you

In the only place I ever felt safe

I just want those days back

So I can relive them all over again

Is it really true that I'll never get to see those eyes so blue

Again?


The day they stormed in our oasis and took you away

I thought that my life was ruined and that it'd stay that way

That nothing would ever make sense again, that I'd never get the chance to say

I'm sorry, please give me the chance to start again
