Impossible

And now when all is done
There is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won
You can go ahead tell them

 
 
Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the rooftops
Write it on the skyline
All we had is gone now







 
And now when all is gone
There is nothing to say
And if you're done with embarrassing me
On your own you can go ahead tell them

 
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible
