lyrics
Don’t be scared
I’m fading away
You’re pushing hard
Try as you may
Let me walk on coals or on ice
Get through the temper
Pain is precise
Drop your survival kit
The first time’s hard but you’ll tolerate
Subsequent times will make you feel betrayed
You’ll be suffering hard and fall apart
Is this how the story ends
Or just another attempt
When you’re on
The outside
Looking in and shell decide
What she wants
I’ll be the last to know
Until it shows
And my eyes learn to see
A cloud up so very high
Reminds me of your quiet denial
Down and down and down we slide
It’s tricky but we gotta decide
Allow me to ask you
If what I want is what I can’t have
Do I have to love what I’ve got?
Don’t blame me
Don’t hate me
Just because I’m the one
To tell you what’s wrong
While it’s watching you
It’s holding you
You can leave
All you feel behind
Don’t waste your time… heal
I’m fading away
You’re pushing hard
Try as you may
Let me walk on coals or on ice
Get through the temper
Pain is precise
Drop your survival kit
The first time’s hard but you’ll tolerate
Subsequent times will make you feel betrayed
You’ll be suffering hard and fall apart
Is this how the story ends
Or just another attempt
When you’re on
The outside
Looking in and shell decide
What she wants
I’ll be the last to know
Until it shows
And my eyes learn to see
A cloud up so very high
Reminds me of your quiet denial
Down and down and down we slide
It’s tricky but we gotta decide
Allow me to ask you
If what I want is what I can’t have
Do I have to love what I’ve got?
Don’t blame me
Don’t hate me
Just because I’m the one
To tell you what’s wrong
While it’s watching you
It’s holding you
You can leave
All you feel behind
Don’t waste your time… heal
