Intro

Fight these eyes

 They're drawing you, inside.

Verse 1

Sign the name in marker,

Watch the clouds as they got darker.

Felt it start to slip away.

All the schemes were made and plotted,

All the rules have been forgotten now.

I made it by the skin of my teeth again this time.

Refrain

I'm waiting, still waiting,

 To get away and make a change,

Seasons last forever in this phase.

Chorus

Forget your heart.

 It's weighing you down inside,

 As you confide your life to someone else.

Maybe we're scared to be alone,

 We're not prepared to throw the stones,

 And watch them drift out of our control.

Verse 2

I braced my body for the

sudden impact that was more than I

ever thought that it would be.

And when it knocked me over,

 I've never felt more stiff than sober now.

 I'm struggling to get up and run away.

Refrain 2

I've wasted, I've wasted

 my life away. I've gotta change,

 I've gotta burn the book and turn the page.

Chorus

Forget your heart.

 It's weighing you down inside,

 As you confide your life to someone else.

Maybe we're scared to be alone,

 We're not prepared to throw the stones,

 And watch them drift out of our control.

Post-chorus:

There's no return,

To what you had when you started,

Before you lost control.

 You will never recover.

Fight these eyes

 They're drawing you, inside.

Interlude

 Ad Lib: - [2x]

Bridge

 Ad Lib: -

Lie down and break down,

You're dead.

Lie down before you lose control. [2x]

Chorus

Forget your heart.

 It's weighing you down inside,

 As you confide your life to someone else.

Maybe we're scared to be alone,

 We're not prepared to throw the stones,

 And watch them drift out of our control.
