| Heaven knows how hard I’ve tried
|
| To hold you close while you cast me aside
|
| It’s the month of October and nothing has changed
|
| You’re still hungover with that look on your face
|
| It’s a long way down, ain’t that what you say?
|
| And the only way we’re ever gonna get up
|
| Is if we smile like we don’t really care what’s lost along the way
|
| You say that you can’t see the light
|
| And I pray that you make up your mind
|
| Won’t you stop what you’re doing and build me a shrine
|
| Or will you leave me in ruins like you did last time?
|
| Kiss me twice and the windows shake
|
| I’m weary-eyed and you’re always running late
|
| Don’t leave me lying here in this rubble and dust
|
| All alone and crying trying to crawl back up
|
| And it’s a long way down, ain’t that what you say?
|
| And the only way we’re ever gonna get up
|
| Is if we smile like we don’t really care what’s lost along the way
|
| You say that you can’t see the light
|
| And I pray that you make up your mind
|
| Won’t you stop what you’re doing and build me a shrine
|
| Or will you leave me in ruins like you did last time? |
