Strong as tin and I'm living in a paper-thin house of cards In disguise from my own advice On the thin ice, I brace myself One slip of this death-grip and I’ll trip Ripped from fastening In a fall and I can't recall where I crawled, Clawing my way in
Say you'll never go Say I'll never be alone That's the only lie from you I want and would forgive Say you'll never dream Say you'll never even sleep Then you'll not awake to only what I am
It’s a world where we cast our pearls Into the mouths of swine Chew them up good spit them out Trampled under pretty feet Separate and we wait to negate What our fate delivers up Chase the end, try and comprehend When pretend is all that I can do
Say you'll never go Say I'll never be alone That's the only lie from you I want and would forgive Say you'll never dream Say you'll never even sleep Then you'll not awake to only what I am
Choked tight, like a hot night, think I might suffocate Like a coiled spring, taut string, eager to hesitate One slip of this death-grip and I’ll trip Ripped from fastening In a fall and I can't recall when I crawled, Clawing my way in
Say you'll never go Say I'll never be alone That's the only lie from you I want and would forgive Say you'll never dream Say you'll never even sleep Then you'll not awake to only what I am What I am
