|
And we feel like rain when the words all sound the same |
|
In the lifeless corners of this empty frame |
|
Though we feel let down by the same old autumn breathing |
|
Winter's curse is just around the bend |
|
With our hands all tied to the blades of their design |
|
We are armed and ready to commit this crime |
|
We love that game but we never play |
|
'Cause we will lose and we wanna stay |
|
The way we are |
|
The way we've been for far too long |
|
From the falsest smile to the fear of death is why |
|
The pain reminds us that we're still alive |
|
With our hopes on hold and our lack of interest exposed |
|
All hands damage our determined eyes |
|
But the lines are drawn and the red begins to creep |
|
Its way from boredom toward apathy |
|
We love that game but we never play |
|
'Cause we will lose and we wanna stay |
|
The way we are |
|
The way we've been for far too long |
|
We love that game but we never play |
|
'Cause we will lose and we wanna stay |
|
The way we are |
|
The way we've been for far too long |
|
Say something finally, we're alone |
|
Alright, is there anyone out there at all? |
|
Say something finally, we're alone |
|
How about a phone call now? |
|
We love that game but we never play |
|
'Cause we will lose and we wanna stay |
|
The way we are |
|
The way we've been for far too long |
|
We love that game but we never play |
|
'Cause we will lose and we wanna stay |
|
The way we are |
|
The way we've been for far too long |
|
We love that game but we never play |
|
'Cause we will lose and we wanna stay the way we are |
|
And we feel like rain when the words all sound the same |
|
As the curtain closes on another day |
