lyrics

without you
my paths are no longer straight
and i am no longer true
without you
i'm free from the hands of fate
and i don't know what else to do

and never was it said
to use your heart and not your head
but by you i was undone
and always it's been told
that in love you must be bold
but by you i was unmade

i laid down my guard
it wasn't really heard
and i learned
i laid down my defense
it didn't make much sense
and i burned

without you
my paths are no longer straight
and i am no longer true
without you
i'm free from the hands of fate
and i don't know what else to do

and never should you give
the very thing you need to live
but for you perhaps i would

and forever it's been known
that man shouldn't be alone
but if it's you maybe i should

i did what i did mostly out of some kind of generosity
i was a fool i was a fool
i gave what I gave while hoping for some kind of reciprocity
i was a tool i was a tool

i was a tool
i was a tool

without you
my paths are no longer straight
and i am no longer true
without you
i'm free from the hands of fate
and i don't know what else to do
and i don't know what else to do
and i don't know what else to do
without you
