lyrics

Monday, midnight
People say it'll be all right
I see the tunnel
But there's no light.

Chorus:
life is bitter, bittersweet
it all changed in a heartbeat
too little, too late
only my heart to break
I close my eyes and
I fade away
(fade away)

Sunday, sunny day
Wish the world would go away
Dreams cost too much
And I can't pay.

Chorus:
life is bitter, bittersweet
it all changed in a heartbeat
too little, too late
only a heart to break
I close my eyes and
I fade away
(fade away)

Wednesday, gray dawn.
All night, I left the music on.
The silence is too loud
Without your song.

Chorus:
life is bitter, bittersweet
it all changed in a heartbeat
too little, too late
only my heart to break
I close my eyes and
I fade away
(fade away)

Friday, evening,
Is when I stopped believing.
Wanna find my smile again
But I can't stop grieving.

Last Chorus:
life is bitter, bittersweet
it all changed in a heartbeat
too little, too late
only a heart to break
I close my eyes and
I fade away (don't let me)
...fade away
