Absent from
The grace I feel
I wasted such a ____
Stubborn heart
Should just make nice

But that's not how we're designed
We are defined
By our inability to compromise

And all the lust
That I've disguised
This trust will not suffice
A love wants ____

I didn't mean to be mean
But now it seems
That all my crooked schemes
Have caught back up to me

So take me back to the start
Rewind the wires in my heart
I'll love you 'til you're lonely
I will be your one and only
If only you would
Change your mind for me

And I'd sacrifice most anything
To hear that telephone ring
One more time
With your voice on the line

Eventually you'll see
My tendency
To want to kill
Most beautiful things

So take me back to the start
Rewind the wires in my heart
I'll love you 'til you're lonely
I'll be your one and only
If only you would
Change your mind for me
If only you would
Change your mind for me
