Breakaway by Tori Amos Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No, I don't expect
You to forgive me this
Siding with the soldiers who say
We cannot win the day
A theatre of war the frame
Inner conflicts now reign
Their intent: division till
There is no side to take

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You feel betrayed
I feel played
By our so-called friends
Not the friends we should have made

[Chorus]
So when the story ends
And the stage goes dark
And we both can hear
The writing on the wall
Then I beg the bard
To write another scene
Because you're the one
Who taught me to believe
There is something more
That I need to say
I should've said it though
I should've said it though
Before yesterday
Before your breakaway
[Verse 2]
This jungle is dark
But full of diamonds
That can cut and exploit
With just a whiff of blood
'Faith in spades' in us
So what were the odds?
Our hand of hearts would have to fold
To their flush of clubs

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You've been betrayed
I've been played
At least they made me exit
Through their chopper on the stage

[Chorus]
So, when the story ends
And the stage to goes dark
And we all can hear
The writing on the wall
Then I beg the bard
To write another scene
Because he's the one
Who taught me to believe
There is nothing more
That I need to say
I should've said it though
I should've said it though
Before yesterday
Before your breakaway
