In the Cold Light of Day

I could be sorry if I knew what it was for
If you'd only talk to me once more
Just be careful what you wish for
In the end you might be getting what you want

But if I were you and if I had a choice
I would run, run like hell

This useless arguing is through for me, my dear
About who's and what's to change
We're just not making any progress 'round here
Running in this treadmill chase

Just let it go
Give it a rest
'Cause if push comes to shove
You know
I won't pass your test

And in the cold light of day
You'll find I'm not half the one you fell for
And if you choose not to stay
There'll be no refund at the door
Count your scars
And hope you'll come out wiser

Maybe it's best to bury this hatchet for a while
Step out of our shadows into the light
And let's hope we both can learn to breath again
Instead of keeping it all inside

Just let it go
Give it a rest
'Cause if push comes to shove
You know
I won't pass your test

I could've put it in some kinder way
But would it have made any difference?
There's no use in returning, besides
We've already gone this far

I've seen so many people go this way
And I watched them try and fail
So I see no point in fighting feelings
Or learning to turn them off somehow

And in the cold light of day
You'll find I'm not half the one you fell for
And if you choose not to stay
There'll be no refund at the door
Count your scars
And hope you'll come out wiser

Count your scars
And hope you'll come out wiser
