Cut through the skin with knives of words
(I'm still bleeding out questions of nerve)
What will it take to sort this out?
(It's still lodging its blade in my heart)
Silence hurts more than the worst sound
(Now it's too late to call)
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'm still falling down
Fill out the papers, file the forms
(And I'm signing you up for the war)
This is the way we've learned to cope
(Insecurities take over hope)
Silence hurts more than the worst sound
(Now it's too late to call)
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'm still falling down
I can see you and me on the water tonight
Blood red sky lets me know
(You'll be here and tomorrow we'll wake up, we can start again. We have so much left to learn from all of our mistakes. You can trust me. I won't give up, I won't let you go)
Cut through the skin with knives of words
Silence hurts more than the worst sound
(Now it's too late to call)
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'm still falling down
Silence hurts more than the worst sound
(Now it's too late to call)
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'M STILL FALLING DOWN
