Chasing Victory – Unrequited Love lyrics

So write it down in lover's blood.
There's gotta be a better way to break this spell.

Send out a search party.
Have you forgot how to love, how to die?
I see the crosses behind your eyes.
When will the fire burn out?
When will it burn out?
Is it after we've covered our tracks?
I'm not going to stay to find out.

He never asked for much.
If the fire burns out will it ever light up again?
Will it ever light up?
And it's been so long since I've seen your eyes this cold.
When did you let them step in?
When did you let them take control?

So sound the alarm.
There's gotta be a better way to break this spell.
Tell the whole world that I left without his love
At the chiming of the bells.

I've been dreaming of elaborate schemes.
Though the love was good for a while,
It's been much easier to leave.
I've got a new life now.
This couldn't have come at a worse time!
I guess you had to find out about this
Unrequited love that I deny.

Why do you attempt on making countless efforts?
(He never asked for much. If the fire goes out...)
When will you give up on this?
(Will it ever light up again? Will it ever light up?)
Why do you attempt on making countless efforts?
(And it's been so long since I've seen your eyes this cold.)
When will you give up on this?
(When did you let them step in? When did you let them take control?)

You say you fell out of love?
You say you fell out of love?
You say you fell out of love?
Well, I call this abandonment!

There's gotta be a better way.
Tell the whole world that I left without his love
At the chiming of the bells.

I've been dreaming of elaborate schemes.
Though the love was good for a while,
It's been much easier to leave.
I've got a new life now.
This couldn't have come at a worse time!
I guess you had to find out about this
Unrequited love that I deny.

That I deny, I deny.
I call this abandonment.
I call this abandonment.
I call this abandonment!
