There are things I regret doing
Places I wish I hadn't seen
I guess we're just too different
You'll never understand me
I think that when it's raining
It's a way of starting clean
Like the slates have been whiped clear
Though not erasing where I've been
I carry all my baggage
With me everywhere I go
You tell me that we arn't different
Because you say it doesn't make it so
You don't know what I've seen
You can't imagine where I've been
You just sit and take it in
Thinking we're the same
You don't know anything about me
You'll never understand me
Because you've never been there
You don't know what I am saying
Every night hoping, anticipating
Maybe you'll understand
When we are together
You don't try it seems
I guess we're just too different
You'll never understand

You don't know the hell I've been living in
I've been trying and flying and sinking in
To the quick sand
It's a miracle I could stand
On my own two feet
After you left me
After you told me
After you showed me
(chorus)
I'm dying and trying to find my way out
I'm crying and screaming and ready to shout
But no matter what you say, no matter what you do
I'm still twenty-two days away from you
I don't know what you have been told
But this facade is rapidly getting old
I'll call your bluff, I won't be the one to fold
I'm not the one who'll be left out in the cold
(chorus)
You tried and tried to tell me what I did wrong
And I, I went and believed you for so long
But now I see...It's you not me
(chorus)

I lie here hoping for
Something that'll never come
I lie here hoping that
Once again I'll see the sun
Through the rain and the snow
I've always known where to go
But then he drew me off course
Mr. Prince Charming stole my horse
The insomnia that I feel
Is nothing compared to what I felt before
I lie here thinking about
The way that it should be
But I was blinded by the sun
And now I can no longer see
Through the rain and the snow
I've always known where to go
But then he drew me off course
Mr. Prince Charming stole my horse
I'm not a damsel in distress
But my life's been such a mess
Since he broke my trust
Thought I knew what it was to be loved
The insomnia that I feel
Is nothing compared to what I felt before
All the misanthropic ideas
Are all because I can't trust anyone anymore
