I can understand how the edges are rough
|
And they cut you like the tiny slithers of glass
|
And you feel too much
|
And you don’t know how long you’re gonna last,
|
|
But everyone you know, is tryin’a smooth it over,
|
Find a way to make the hurt go away,
|
But everyone you know, is tryin’a smooth it over,
|
Like you’re trying to scream underwater,
|
But, I won’t let you make the great escape,
|
I’m never gonna watch you checkin' out of this place
|
I’m not gonna lose you
|
Cause the passion and pain
|
Are gonna keep you alive someday
|
Gonna keep you alive someday
|
|
I feel like I could wave my fist in front of your face
|
And you wouldn’t flinch or even feel a thing
|
And you retreat to your silent corner
|
Like you decided the fight was over for ya,
|
|
Everyone you know, is tryin’a smooth it over,
|
Find a way to make the hurt go away,
|
Everyone you know, is tryin’a smooth it over,
|
Everyone needs a floor they can fall through
|
I won’t let you make the great escape,
|
I’m never gonna watch you checkin' outta this place
|
I’m not gonna lose you
|
Cause the passion and pain
|
Are gonna keep you alive someday
|
They’re gonna keep you alive someday
|
|
Oh, Terrified of the dark, but not if you go with me
|
And I don’t need a pill to make me know
|
And I wrote the book already,
|
But that chapter of my life will soon be done
|
|
I’m the king of the great escape
|
You’re not gonna watch me checkin' outta this place
|
You’re not gonna lose me
|
Cause the passion and pain
|
Are gonna keep us alive, someday
|
Yeah the passion and the pain
|
Are gonna keep us alive someday, someday
|
