[Verse 1]
When I look into the future, I see failure
And fear and d**h and endless tragedy
When you look ahead, tell me, what do you see?
Is it still something involving you and me?
[Chorus]
Or did I stay too long in your arms
And the safety of your touch?
Have I lost the will to fight these devils off?
Did I stay too long in your arms, sheltered from the storm?
Am I too detached from what you saved me from?
[Verse 2]
When I look to the night sky I see darkness
With well-lit interruptions in between
When you look above, tell me, what do you see?
Is there a heaven in the sky for you and me?
[Chorus]
Or did I stay too long in your arms
And the safety of your touch?
Have I lost the will to fight these devils off?
Did I stay too long in your arms, sheltered from the storm?
Am I too detached from what you saved me from?
[Bridge]
When I get upset when you try to help
When I pretend I'm not feeling well
So I don't have to hang with your friends
In a crowded bar of idiots
When I ask you what you really think
And I freak out about everything
When you try your best to clear my head
But I sink a mile under the bed
Is it all my fault or just most of it?
My potential turns to worthlessness
And you reach to pull me out of it
But the weight just starts to s** you in
You say, "It can't be me, no not again
I'll drown in the rain before this storm ends"
All the missteps flash inside my head
And I'm wondering
[Chorus]
Oh, did I stay too long in your arms
And the safety of your touch?
Have I lost the will to fight these devils off?
Did I stay too long in your arms, sheltered from the storm?
Am I too detached from what you saved me from?
Did I stay too long?
