You were the love I had then lost
Might've been better to not
You can't fall halfway
I'd rather be lonely than trying to stay
Wishing I could change
It's not you, it's not me
It's human alchemy
You came to me honest, pure-hearted
Looking for a bone to keep
Well these bones might be pretty
But honey, they're needy
They'll slip away when you least expect
You can't fall halfway
I'd rather be lonely than trying to stay
Wishing I could change
It's not you, it's not me
It's human alchemy
Cauterize the wound inside with your good intentions
The soul is stronger than my will and strongest suggestions
You can't fall halfway
I'd rather be lonely than trying to stay
Wishing I could change
It's not you, it's not me
It's human alchemy
