You built this across my back
Forgive me for giving in
How far is too far, how long is too long
How much is too much?
The bend before the break
How long have you been away from me now?
I hate myself for what I've done
I hate these words they just won't come out right at all
They turn on me every time I call
I hate these words because they're never quite enough
Could paint them over
I could never make it up
What this is, is not enough for you
What this is, means everything to me
What this is, means everything to me
What this is, is harder than it seems
What this is, is blood through stitches and the seams
Let me hear you say it
"Everything is going to be alright"
You lie when your lips move, just like the rest of us
Let me hear you say it
"Everything is going to be alright"
