Nice To Meet You

[Verse 1]
The last words you spoke
Fell from flaming lips
Like an ember
I'd hoped that we'd meet again
But stormy nights like these
Help me remember

[Chorus]
Must I let you go, leaving me alone
I could cry but I'll say, "Nice to meet you"

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
It's written on a face still stained with hope
Reading all the poetry I never wrote
Lights the bed on fire and I'm burning (And I'm burning)
Seeing the demise dripping from your eyes
Watch the tears fill a cup full of compromise
As the angel sighs, so unwise (So unwise)

[Chorus]
Must I let you go, leaving me alone
I'll hide my eyes as I say, "Nice to meet you"

[Bridge]
Everything you wish you could erase
Memories you wish you could replace
You take all the blame but you would never take my place

[Chorus]
Now that we're outside, I should say, "Goodbye"
Instead I'll lie and say, "It's oh so very nice to meet you"

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, it's so very nice
Singing it out
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, it's so very nice
C'mon, c'mon
Singing it out
Oh, it's so very nice

[Outro]
I should say, "Goodbye" but
I should say, "Goodbye" but
I'll just say, "It's oh so very nice to meet you"
