fall
i've looked into so many eyes
and smiled at many faces.
i thought i've seen someone different
but then they always turn around
exposing the standard stone we're all made of.
i'm feeling like the only soft and fabricated one.
everytime i make you one more thing you're not
i make myself everything i should want to be.
i've tripped so many times over and over again
how do i know when it's safe to fall?
he seemed so electric.
misunderstood and failed.
but electricity goes static.
she's gotten inside him but he'll never be inside her
and she's slowly shutting him down.
i've stepped outside myself
and am closing in all over again.
everytime i make you one more thing you're not
i let myself be everything i am.
i've tripped this ground so many times
how do i know when its safe to fall?
she walks barefoot over tacks we've placed beneath her feet.
her hands were cold and tightly tied but only eyes reached out.
she'll remember glory days of when he held her close.
they never needed the spot light
but an on switch would be nice.
there's a search light out to find me yet
i'm center stage and all alone where everyone's a critic.
i want to be infinite and spread my arms to dance.
there's no need to care for balance
i know the song we're crying out.
i don't want to stop the illusion
but the rate inside is flat lining and i'm afraid to bleed.
i don't think i'd care so much
if i had only known.
that you're the one that makes me hurt.
you're the one that makes me bleed.
everytime i make myself one more thing i'm not
i make you everything i couldn't want.
you make me trip again and again.
tell me when it's safe to fall.
