 How did you come up with a day and time
You  didn't tell me you'd changed your mind
How  could I have been so blind
I  didn't know you'd changed your  mind
 When you made the decision to get off this ride
 Did you run out of places to go and hide
 Did you know everybody would be surprised
 When you made the decision to get off this ride
 When you made the decision to jump ship
 Once and for all lose your grip
 Did you wax the deck to make it easier to slip
 When you made the decision to jump ship
 When did you start seeing black
Was  it too much good you felt you lacked
Was  it too much weight riding on your back
When  did you start seeing black
 When did you start seeing red
 Did you see me standing over your bed
 Did you hear anything I said
 When did you start seeing red
 When did you start seeing white
 Tell me baby what was it like
 Was it when you received your last rites
 When did you start seeing white
 Did you use a compass to get out of this place
 Did you ever hear my voice, did you see my face
 Did you finally get tired of running the race
 Did you use a compass to get out of this place
 Did you feel your act was a final truth
 The dramatic ending of a misspent youth
 Did you really feel you had all the proof
 Did you feel your act was a final truth
 Was it hard to finally pull the plug
 Was it hard to receive that final hug
 Did evil triumph over love
 Was it hard to finally pull the plug
 When did you start seeing black
 Was it too much good you felt you lacked
 Was it too much weight riding on your back
 When did you start seeing black
 When did you start seeing red
 Did you see me standing over your bed
 Did you hear anything I said
 When did you start seeing red
 When did you start seeing white
 Tell me baby what was it like
 Was it when you received your last rites
 When did you start seeing white
