lyrics

It was freezing in November
And the train was running late
So we waited till December
And by then God had sealed our fate

We were destined for a winter
Filled with cold and ice
But just like pulling out a splinter
Everything was looking nice

Cause we had found a shortcut
A little off the beaten path
And as they helped escort us
We couldn’t help but laugh

But our joy turned to sadness
Cause the path was filled with pain
And I sank into a madness
Cause the sun had turned to rain

Tell me did you feel the pain
Tell me could you hear the rain?
And I wonder how you’d be
Would you look like her or me?

Well I’m sorry I’m so selfish
Only caring about me
But I feared things would be hellish
And I didn’t wanna wait and see

I justified my actions
As a matter of public health
But addition by subtraction
Only benefits myself

I never got to meet you
And you never met a single soul
But it was better than to keep you
That’s what I tell myself to fill the hole

Tell me did you feel the pain
Tell me could you hear the rain?
And I wonder how you’d be
Would you look like her or me?

And it's true what they say about me
I'm as fucking selfish as can be
I'm sorry about what I did to you
Before you said hello, I bid you adieu

Tell me did you feel the pain
Tell me could you hear the rain?
And I wonder how you’d be
Would you look like her or me?

Would you look like her or me?
Would you look like her or me?
Would you look like her or me?
Would you look like her or me?
