It Ends Tonight
The All-American Rejects
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Your subtleties They strangle me I can't explain myself at all And all that wants And all that needs All I don't want to need at all [Bridge] The walls start breathing My mind's un-weaving Maybe it's best you leave me alone A weight is lifted On this evening I give the final blow When darkness turns to light It ends tonight It ends tonight A falling star Least I fall alone I can't explain what you can't explain Your finding things that you didn't know I look at you with such disdain [Bridge] [Chorus] When darkness turns to light It ends tonight It ends tonight Just a little insight will make this right It's too late to fight It ends tonight It ends tonight Now I'm on my own side It's better than being on your side It's my fault when you're blind It's better that I see it through your eyes All these thoughts locked inside Now you're the first to know [Chorus x 2]
