lyrics

Never tell me what you're after,
just repeat the same thing faster.
I am not a cast of plaster.
Sure I'll change, I can change.
When I change, I will change you.

This is where you blew your cover.
Impersonate a jilted lover,
but we don't even know each other.
Sure I'll change, I can change.
When I change, you will change too.

When I crash through this plate glass shattering,
I can see you reflected.
Reliving the past in this slow motion epitaph,
carved in time lapse.

Never saw yourself as equal.
I treated you just like a freak will,
but we don't need to make a sequel.
I can change, I can change.
When I change, you will change too.

When I crash through this plate glass shattering,
I can see you, but not hear you.
Reliving the past in this slow motion epitaph,
carved in time lapse.
And who will you ask
When you've used up your every chance?
