| I shut my eyes, trying not to speak
|
| Pretend that I’m dreaming
|
| I smell your breath, not listening
|
| But I still hear you screaming
|
| (Going under)
|
| One step away till you hear what I’m saying
|
| (Sounds like thunder)
|
| And the clouds are closing in
|
| You see I know this
|
| But the last days in real life I’ve noticed
|
| Losing focus
|
| Breaking up from our life as we know it
|
| If someone had told me
|
| That I will take off
|
| And find something greener
|
| Greener than gold
|
| If someone had told me
|
| That I will be strong
|
| I’m gonna rise, gonna rise, and fly
|
| And leave the gold between the lines
|
| I turn my head and hold it high
|
| But he’s making me shiver
|
| He’s not like you, don’t want him to
|
| He’s more like the river
|
| (Growing stronger)
|
| When we’re alone there’s no you in the picture
|
| (Paint by numbers)
|
| Isn’t how I want it to
|
| You see I know this
|
| But the last days in real life I’ve noticed
|
| Losing focus
|
| Breaking up from our life as we know it
|
| If someone had told me
|
| That I will take off
|
| And find something greener
|
| Greener than gold
|
| If someone had told me
|
| That I will be strong
|
| I’m gonna rise, gonna rise, and fly
|
| And leave the gold, between, the lines
|
| Whatever you do, what we were, now he’s my silver lining
|
| Whenever you call, what you say, you’re nothing but a gold ring
|
| To be true, say I do, but you’re no one I needed in life
|
| Oh that is why, you are stuck between the lines
|
| If someone had told me
|
| That I will take off
|
| And find something greener
|
| Greener than gold
|
| If someone had told me
|
| That I will be strong
|
| I’m gonna rise, gonna rise, and fly
|
| And leave the gold, between, the lines |
