The Hero That Got Away lyrics

I never thought nostalgia could ever hurt this much it's burning through my veins and busting out through holes found in my guts so comfort my affliction, I'm hoping that the light we share between our eyes is helping yours and burning straight through mine So walk alone tonight, watching angels cry I let you know that I was wrong for you it's me or something else And Careful what you say, still hoping for the day to come around where you thank me for the pain I didn't cause So what's left to say? I'm running out of lines to give excuses to mend, the reasons that I know you'll never find can we please let this one under my skin? I promised myself I would never let you down again So walk alone tonight, watching angels cry I let you know that I was wrong for you it's me or something else And Careful what you say, still hoping for the day to come around where you thank me for the pain I didn't cause Excuses only break the feelings that I fake I hope that I can mend you always I'm the hero that got away
