what a way to die

i don't want to dream about you anymore
everything i wanted has crashed and burned
i want to lose you i want to refuse you
and i don't want another chance
i thought that you would build me up
and break me down in the best way
but then we kissed
and couldn't look each other in the face

you'll never be a hero or a saint
or a gentleman
you'll never be anything good for me
my fantasies died in reality
oh what a way to die
what a way to die

i don't want to think about it anymore
secrets that i kept are not secrets anymore
i don't like to think about the promises
i don't want another chance
i thought that you were mine
in another life
but it wasn't how i imagined it

you'll never be a hero or a saint
or a gentleman
you'll never be anything good for me
my fantasies died in reality
oh what a way to die
what a way to die

i want to let you down the way i let you go
you said you'd love to drown i hoped that you would choke
i never let you see how guilty you made me
not anymore, no, not anymore

you'll never be a hero or a saint
or a gentleman
you'll never be anything good for me
my fantasies died in reality
oh what a way to die
what a way to die
