I can still see your face when you're walking out
|
I remember you that way
|
I keep tellin lies to satisfy the insane idea
|
that maybe I should try to make you stay
|
|
you like slammin doors, and screaming in the rain
|
you like breathing down my neck, extinguishing my flame
|
i wanna shake your shadow, i wanna tell it to quit
|
but when the devils start talkin, you know there's no forgetting it
|
|
and I don't know what it is, I can't resist
|
is it a habit that I miss?
|
|
just bone and breath, thats all it is now
|
spirit and flesh, my soul unprotected
|
human at best, and it feels like I'm
|
|
Balancing blind
|
by the skin of my teeth
|
I'm high off the ground
|
trying to stand on my own two feet
|
by without you do I feel incomplete
|
I'm balancing blind like a blind man's bluff
|
just bone and breath
|
|
i can still hear the sound of your words telling me
|
i have to let you go
|
then you chat me up, try to win my trust
|
until I've had enough of your own divine one sided after glow
|
|
and i don't know why I need to still believe
|
that I should suffer your conceit
|
|
just bone and breath, that's all it is now
|
spirit and flesh, it feels like I'm
|
|
Balancing blind
|
by the skin of my teeth
|
I'm high off the ground
|
trying to stand on my own two feet
|
by without you do I feel incomplete
|
I'm balancing blind like a blind man's bluff
|
just bone and breath
|
|
how can we continue to be living in this waste of precious time
|
how can you tell me that it was all a wicked lie
|
maybe I'm mistaken I don't know but if anything we ever said was true
|
if there's this side of you
|
|
just bone and breath, that's all it is now
|
spirit and flesh, it feels like I'm
|
|
Balancing blind
|
by the skin of my teeth
|
I'm high off the ground
|
trying to stand on my own two feet
|
by without you do I feel incomplete
|
I'm balancing blind like a blind man's bluff
|
just bone and breath
|
