One says love is tragic
|
One says miracle
|
One becomes a skeptic
|
One is vulnerable
|
It's sad to me how quickly
|
We define
|
What is wrong with yours
|
Is right with mine
|
You think
|
That we could learn
|
To let things slide?
|
Just let things slide
|
|
One side moving closer
|
One is more obscure
|
One side feeling open
|
One in overload
|
All the time it takes
|
To build things up
|
And no time
|
Flat to deconstruct
|
You think
|
That we could learn
|
To give it up?
|
Give it up
|
|
The thin ice that we tread
|
That's dangerously set
|
The intentions
|
Go falling through
|
|
And you
|
I had you in my web
|
Now here I am instead
|
Hanging by a thread
|
|
I'm caught up in the back and forth
|
Of balancing my fear
|
I'll tell you though
|
For what it's worth
|
I fell for you my dear
|
|
It's sad to me how quickly
|
We define
|
What is wrong with yours
|
Is right with mine
|
You think
|
That we could learn
|
To let things slide?
|
Let things slide
|
|
The thin ice that we tread
|
That's dangerously set
|
The intentions
|
Go falling through
|
And you
|
I had you in my web
|
Now here I am instead
|
Hanging by a thread
