i see this hand, it points to me
but don't know know to make a fist
and turn this thing around
i let this get the best of me
i let this bind, i let thisbleed
falling to your ground
i'll get it right from all this mess
i'm guilty, how should i confess
and drag you down with me?
this situation is out of hand
no control, now take the stand
how clever can we be?
when I find my way
I'll be free
and try to be
so honest with you
i'll find the words to say
the simple things
so far in between
the prize and the fall
our alibi could make us fall
do or die, and take it all
recording each and everything i say
and i don't mean to make a scene
just need to feel the space between
what's wrong or right
if that's my crime,
i'll do the time
go through hell
just to watch it die
when i find my way
i'll be free
and try to be
so honest with you
i find the words to say
the simple things
so far in between
the prize and the...
come away with me
come away intrigued
do you see me?
as i lie awake
i feel you take my hand
and melt me
when i find my way
i'll be free
and try to be
so honest with you
i find the words to say
the simple things
so far in between
the prize and the fall
