I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well I wanna
Must be something they're hiding Must be reasons that no one will dare to tell Must be something inside me But I don't think so anymore It's hurting again
If I gave you the truth, would it keep you alive? Though I'm closer to wrong I'm no further from right And now I'm convinced on the inside that something
Well the tongue inside my mouth is not for sale Any spirit left in me is fading fast Could you throw another stone to ease my pain? Could you throw another
Hold me now I need to feel relief Like I never wanted anything I suppose I'll let this go and find a reason I'll hold on to I'm so ashamed of defeat And
Watch it blow my mind It's something I am ill-prepared to remedy But let it slow the time It takes to die and close your eyes to your enemy Defy! Self
Throw your dollar bills and leave your thrills all here with me And speak but don't pretend I won't defend you anymore you see It aches in every bone,

Walk away from the sun, come slowly undone I can see in your eyes i've already won I could bleed for a smile, i could cry for some fun Walk away from
Take the light, undarken everything around me Call the clowns and listen closely, i'm lost without you Call your name every day when i feel so helpless
Before you hedge those bets you placed against me Be reticent of fortunes they foretell Your verbal defecation i can't wash away despite myself Your vanity
