๐ Lyrics
It all makes sense, now I've calmed down
I should have seen it coming from miles down the road
But at the time, we never think
That it might have been ourselves to blame at all
You shudder and beat your chest
But you'll never warm yourself up, believe me
Where were you? I'd made it through
But only God can judge me now, I hope he's in
Why do hearts break when we are on our own
Just when you need to pump the life back in yourself?
And why do earthquakes happen miles away
When I only want the open ground to swallow me?
Who told you I'd not come through
Before I could speak to you in my defense?
Who made you the righteous one
When I'd only turned around for half an hour?
Why do chalk lines tell an empty tale?
Surely, it's bad enough to end up on the floor
And you can scratch your chin
And think you understand
But how can you know what's going on inside my head?
Maybe I'm better off alive than in my bed
I should have seen it coming from miles down the road
But at the time, we never think
That it might have been ourselves to blame at all
You shudder and beat your chest
But you'll never warm yourself up, believe me
Where were you? I'd made it through
But only God can judge me now, I hope he's in
Why do hearts break when we are on our own
Just when you need to pump the life back in yourself?
And why do earthquakes happen miles away
When I only want the open ground to swallow me?
Who told you I'd not come through
Before I could speak to you in my defense?
Who made you the righteous one
When I'd only turned around for half an hour?
Why do chalk lines tell an empty tale?
Surely, it's bad enough to end up on the floor
And you can scratch your chin
And think you understand
But how can you know what's going on inside my head?
Maybe I'm better off alive than in my bed
