You gave me the time
So I might as well
Slip back into the place
Where I was before
I do realize
The danger's forthcoming
But I just want to lie here
For a while
Even though you've tried
You're no longer satisfied
There's a reason you were working
On a new form of you
You know that it's a lie
And you've heard the truth
But it's only whispers now
So you're keeping it loose
Don't tie it down
You gave me the time
So I might as well
Slip back into the place
Where I was before
I do realize
The danger's forthcoming
But I just want to lie here
For a while
(La la la sinking deeper)
I knew from the start
Fragile as you are
You wouldn't get this far
I had a vision but
Overthought it and
Woke up empty handed
But your eyes
Wide open shine through
All the chaos in you
You always hear the same thing
(Fight through the doubt)
You're always saying the same thing
(Fight through the doubt)
You always hear the same thing
(Fight through the doubt)
You're always saying the same thing
(So write it down)
Oh my love
Come and read this
Did I set me up
To drown in my own blood?
You always hear the same thing
(Fight through the doubt)
You're always saying the same thing
(Fight through the doubt)
You always hear the same thing
(Fight through the doubt)
You're always saying the same thing
(So write it down)
Oh my love
Take me up in your arms
I'm sorry to
Dirty you with my blood
I never intended this
But here we are
Full of righteousness
Never getting very far
Would you come out of the woods?
It's getting pretty dark
Run away from all the fools but
Fools we are oh my what fools we are
You can never run
You can never run
