Times Like These
I hear the engine whine
I watch the needle move in time and
My nonchalance is fading fast
You press your face against the windowpane
You listen to the sound of the pouring rain and
You watch the world as it moves past
I wonder when you fell from grace
Watch the heartbreak dance across your face and
I wonder if it's ever meant to last
But my heart beats faster
As the world grows colder
chorus
So hush my darling
And don't make a sound
Cuz words are useless
In times like these
It's the little heartaches
That make the world go round
When disappointment brings us to our knees
On a night like this
We watch the shadows form and twist and
We watch the clock as it unwinds
I hear the angels sing
I hear the demons screaming in between and
The sound sends shivers down my spine
I know that when you've come undone
It seems like your hearts can beat as one but
I know that we are only wasting time
But my heart beats faster
As the world grows colder
chorus
