Rewind, rewind!
Please change her mind
And take these tears away
Too slow to realise how she feels
To her mind you'll be a slave
Listen, listen!
Lean in close
Feel the blood pulse in her throat
Tempting, tempting
It may be
To leave her standing mercilessly
Save her from herself and cease
To be passing by her misery
Be the hero for yourself
And end this vicious cycle
Be the hero for the world
And
Save her, save her!
Can't you see?
Drowning in pathetic pleas
Too late, too late!
Goodbye for now
You'll meet again, again, don't fear!
When you cross the endless sea
So join her, join her!
Reminisce
About every single thing she missed
When you ignored pathetic pleas
For that's the circle of life,
You see
