I'm chugging pitchers, posting pictures, just to get what I want
You bit my tongue, you never called me, now I'm screaming your songs
The light was ours, but it's been hours, now the time's getting on
And you're a backstage lover, so you break when I'm gone
My love's your yesterday, but baby now you're where you belong
And I wanna kiss you, but you'd rather shake my hand
We played the scene, but then you left me for the band, and
Went to your shows, but no you'll never understand
You were Eve and I was sacred land
You said you loved me, thought I had you in my hands
Sold all my dreams, and then I bought your Neverland, and
I'm only Adam, so I'll never understand
Left my Eden, and now I'm damned
I felt the fall of our love firsthand
I wander back streets, hope you'll see me, but we'll never be one
You broke the promise, held the secret, I was meant to be touched
Now you won't hold me, but it's only 'cause the time's getting on
And you're an open letter, only tear when I'm gone
The garden's lonely, but I see now you're where you belong
And I wanna kiss you, but you'd rather shake my hand
We played the scene, but then you left me for the band, and
Went to your shows, but no you'll never understand
You were Eve and I was sacred land
You said you loved me, thought I had you in my hands
Sold all my dreams, and then I bought your Neverland, and
I'm only Adam, so I'll never understand
Left my Eden, and now I'm damned
I felt the fall of our love firsthand
Now it's November, and all the embers have burned out
Tried to remember all that faith we talked about
I'll take my coffee, black and bitter like the doubt
Behavior of a savior, take a bow
You tried to kiss me, but I'd rather shake your hand
Go play the scene, I'll leave a message for the band, and
I'm in your prayers, but you'll never understand
Now I'm free, I'm in the promised land
Go on and tempt me girl, my head's still in the sand
Playing a scene, I'm still the last one at the stand, and
I'm killing curses, you're the storm I couldn't stand
It's the fall of our love you planned
And I wanna kiss you, but you'd rather shake my hand
We played the scene, but then you left me for the band, and
Went to your shows, but no you'll never understand
You were Eve and I was sacred land
You said you loved me, thought I had you in my hands
Sold all my dreams, and then I bought your Neverland, and
I'm only Adam, so I'll never understand
Left my Eden, and now I'm damned
I felt the fall of our love firsthand
(Now I'm a better man, with the scars you left)
And I wanna kiss you, but you'd rather shake my hand
(Satan's letterman, and you know the rest)
We played the scene, but then you left me for the band, and
(I'll be better babe, now I'm not with you)
Went to your shows, but no you'll never understand
(I'm the saviour of the garden, and the burden's on you)
You were Eve and I was sacred land
(Held me through it all, yeah you know you gave me the)
You said you loved me, thought I had you in my hands
(Fruit and stole all my innocence)
Sold all my dreams, and then I bought your Neverland, and
(Took the knowledge love, now you see it all)
I'm only Adam, so I'll never understand
(But you led me to The Fall)
Left my Eden, and now I'm damned
(You led me to The Fall)
I felt the fall of our love firsthand
