Lyrics:

[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'
