[Verse 1]
She said, "I wonder when will be my day?
'Cause I'm not too far from breaking down
All I've got are screams inside
But somehow they come out in a smile
And I'm wonderin' if I'll always feel this way"
This way

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me about those nights you stayed awake
Tell me about those days you hated me
Tell me how you'd rather die alone
Than being stuck here with me

[Chorus]
And maybe you've fallen down
And maybe you - you took the long way home
But, baby, you will never love you
Like me
And one day this will fade away
In the mirror you'll see your smilin' face
And standing next to you will always be me
Yeah, me

[Verse 2]
One day you're gonna see things my way
You gave me so much room that I can't breathe
All I've got are pictures to view
There was nothing before and all started with you
For some reason it's supposed to be that way
That way
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me about those nights you stayed awake
Tell me about those days you hated me
Tell me how you'd rather die alone
Than being stuck here with me

[Chorus]
And maybe you've fallen down
And maybe you - you took the long way home
But, baby, you will never love you
Like me
And one day this will fade away
In the mirror you'll see your smilin' face
And standing next to you will always be me
Yeah, me

[Chorus 2]
And one day this will fade away
In the mirror you'll
See a smiling face
And standing next to you
Will always be me
Yeah me

[Bridge]
If I could shrink it down and put it in your hands
We made it hurt so much, I can't forget the past
Just don't know what to say, show me what to do
Then I can forgive me and I would forgive you
[Chorus]
And maybe you've fallen down
And maybe you - you took the long way home
But, baby, you will never love you
Like me
And one day this will fade away
In the mirror you'll see your smilin' face
And standing next to you will always be me
You know, will always be me

[Outro]
'Cause I will wait
Always be me

'Til I see your smilin'
