You're simply saying everything if you will Take a pen and write my name on a friend Who never cared to let me in
And take a vast ravine that for
Three years swimmin' straight upstream And the wind...the wind won't drag me down the end You live inside my wall and I I reach back, hit you harder than God falls
Christ, Amen, Amen, Amen You're such a line to break and I I'm so scared to make another mistake in the end
But I just wanna be happy again Until it all falls down And where does that leave me? Well, things, things, I've got so many things to say And with a broken heart, and a straight face I'm sayin' Brother, help me
It's just a natural phase that I I go through and then it's taken away And then BAM! BAM! I'm fixed Yeah, and I'm in another place to be where I I can't sleep without the thought of me being so So damned sick
Take this song, take this song away Until it all falls down And where does that leave me? Well, things, things, I've got so many things to say And with a broken heart and a straight face
And he says Reach for the girl Reach for the girl and hold her close Believe you can shine when you're silver And I promise you gold; I promise you gold And whenever you're dark inside Don't let go; no, don't let go Remember there's rain and there's candy and Christmasy winter snow And remember I love you the same And I'll strangle your pain And he tells me to sing and I sing, and I sing For my brother who keeps me sane And tells me everything will be OK.
