lyrics

You’re stuck in a hole
You can’t get out of, I know
The feeling
Time’s not on your side

Never to know
You’re reasons, why you’re so cold
I’m feeling
Like you’re someone I don’t know

And no, i can’t be wasted
On your subtleties
Say like it is, hell I can take it
But don’t expect my sympathies

You’re stuck in a hole
You can’t get out of I know
The feeling
Time’s not on your side

Never to know
You’re reasons, why you’re so cold
I’m feeling
Like you’re someone I don’t know

And no you can't be shaken
Like the October breeze
The colors fade to darkness
There’s no one left here to please

So tell me why don't you give in?
You're so deep nobody wins.
It's time for you to choose, but I can't do that for you.
It's not that hard to see,
it's all black and white to me…
But if you're getting tired, just load the barrel,
aim and fire.

You're left all alone
but can't keep quiet with all
your demons
and I can't go to sleep

Cause I cant afford
to lose you to your little goal
and so I'll wait to say, "I told you so."

And no you can't be trusted
to make much sense to me
Oh, make a promos, I'll break it...
You're difficult to read.

Once upon a time, I dreamed a man who wanted more
crept up beside my pillowcase and said, "What are you doing this for?"
(If I knew that it would cause you pain,
I wouldn't hesitate to let you throw it all away)
