| Promises you learn to keep your distance
|
| It’s your best defense and you’ve never looked a bigger mess
|
| An attitude protects you from the world you view
|
| But medicine protects the world from you
|
| As though you had a good reason
|
| As though you’ve made a fool of them
|
| They told you now things are even
|
| But you carry on the same old song, you carry on
|
| Tell me why you ran away
|
| What’s the problem, you won’t say
|
| You’re barely hanging on
|
| From almost always maybe safe
|
| Your family sleeps alone but you’re awake
|
| Are you okay? |
| You promised us a reason
|
| Now you hesitate and want to make amends
|
| What happened to you
|
| The things that people cherish you just throw away
|
| As if you knew what you could have
|
| As though you had a good reason
|
| As though you’ve made a fool of them
|
| They told you now things are even
|
| But you carry on the same old song, you carry on
|
| Tell me why you ran away
|
| What’s the problem, you won’t say
|
| You’re barely hanging on
|
| From almost always maybe safe
|
| Your family sleeps alone but you’re awake
|
| You’re barely hanging on |
| From almost always maybe safe
|
| Your family sleeps alone but you’re awake
|
| You’re barely hanging on
|
| From almost always maybe safe
|
| Your family sleeps alone but you’re awake |
