It′s a long way down
I keep backing away from the edge
And it's a slow burn-outLike the fires that rage in my head
And it′s a slow cry out
When you've got so many tears you could die
And it's a long time to wait
When you take all my tears away
My body is colder, time is frozen
All these feelings that poison my soul
And in silence
No, I can′t stand it
Please, break these chains tonight
I can′t hideaway, you're my one way out
And I know I got to take it
I try to change, it′s a long way down
And I know I can make it
It's a slow burn-out
Like the fires that burn in my soul
It′s a cold, dry town
When I got nowhere to go
My body is colder, time is frozen
All these feelings that poison my soul
And in silence
No, I can't stand it
Please break these chains tonight
I can′t hideaway, you're my one way out
And I know I got to take it
I try to change, it's a long way down
But I feel I can make it and hideaway
You′re my one way out
And my tears won′t save me now
Save me now
I can't stand it, all this loneliness I feel
I can′t do this alone
Need someone to remind my feelings
That have fallen down by the door
I can't hideaway, you′re my one way out
And I know I gotta take it
I try to change, it's a long way down
But I feel I can make it and hideaway
You′re my one way out
And I know I can make it and hideaway
It's a long way down
And my tears won't save me now
It′s a long way down
I keep backing away from the edge
And it′s a slow burn-out
Like the fires that rage in my head
