Darling don't you understand |
|
I feel so ill at ease |
|
The room is full of silence and it's getting hard to breathe |
|
Take this guilted cage of pain and set me free |
|
Take this overcoat of shame |
|
It never did belong to me |
|
It never did belong to me |
|
I need to go outside |
|
I need to leave the smoke |
|
'cause I can't go on living in this same sick joke |
|
It seems our lives have taken on a different kind of twist |
|
Now that you have given me the perfect gift |
|
You have given me the gift |
|
For we have fallen from our shelves |
|
To face the truth about ourselves |
|
And we have tumbled from our trees |
|
Tumbled from our trees |
|
And I can almost... |
|
I can almost feel the rain falling |
|
Don't you know it feels so good |
|
So let's go out into the rain again |
|
Just like we said we always would |
