Lyrics
Treading water you sank like stone
Drowned on dry land, your cover blown
Innocent and lily-white
Did you lose your way tonight?
A walking shadow, just blood and bones
Headed nowhere, you can’t go home
Battered skin, you paint to hide
All the pain you feel inside
I see you, I see you coming down
I see you, I see you coming down
If you can’t tell yourself that you can take it,
If you can’t help yourself you’ll never make it back to good
If you can’t tell yourself that you can shake it
If you can’t love yourself you’ll never make it back to good
Faded pictures of love on loan
Stuck on empty, the city groans
The dissonance saps your pride
Why can’t you get the ending right?
I see you, I see you coming down
I see you, I see you coming down
If you can’t tell yourself that you can take it
If you can’t help yourself you’ll never make it back to good
If you can’t tell yourself that you can shake it
If you can’t love yourself you’ll never make it back to good
If you can’t tell yourself that you can take it
If you can’t help yourself you’ll never make it back to good
If you can’t tell yourself that you can shake it
If you can’t love yourself you’ll never make it back to good
