"I Once Knew Love" lyrics

"I Once Knew Love"

You throw your opinion at me
Like water on a fire
The smoke on the wind
Like a tongue of a liar
And while you wore your fear
So self righteously
You ever took the time
To talk to me

Take care now
And don't you crucify this friend
I could be well the one
That's saves you in the end
And you smile your jaded smile
But I know who you are
You're just another drunken driver
At the wheel of the car

Still I can hear you cryin'
Through ever icy stare
Tryin' hard to tell me
That you don't wanna care

So many feelings
Steel so little left to feel
Your self appointer hatred
Well I know it isn't real
'Cause sometimes in the night
I can feel you in the rain
As if you were the wind
Cryin' out my name

I'm forever waiting
In a room just down the hall
The girl you never had the courage
To dance with at the ball
Well I once knew love
But it never knew me well
I was like autumn
Forgotten when I feel
