Prison gates won’t open up for me
On these hands and knees I’m crawlin’
Oh, I reach for you
Well I’m terrified of these four walls
These iron bars can’t hold my soul in
All I need is you
Come please I’m callin’
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I’m fallin’
Show me what it’s like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I’ll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I’ll leave this life behind me
Say it if it’s worth saving me
Heaven’s gates won’t open up for me
With these broken wings I’m fallin’
And all I see is you
These city walls ain’t got no love for me
I’m on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you
Come please I’m callin’
And all I need from you
Hurry I’m fallin’
How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren´t we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables
I wish you´d unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there´s been too much of this
Dont think its too late
Nothin´s wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you´re wondering when
(You´re the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you´re wondering when
Well i hoped that since we´re here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we´ve always needed to say
So we could end up stringing
Now the story´s played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a hollywood horror
Never made it as a wise man
I couldn’t cut it as a poor man stealin’
Tired of livin’ like a blind man
I’m sick inside without a sense of feelin
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
It’s not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I’m mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin’
I’ve been wrong, I’ve been down
To the bottom of every bottle
Despite words in my head
Scream “Are we having fun yet?”
Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no
It’s not like you didn’t know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
It must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
It’s not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I’m mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin’
I’ve been wrong, I’ve been down
To the bottom of every bottle
Despite words in my head
Scream “Are we having fun yet?”
Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no
Never made is as a wise man
I couldn’t cut it as a poor man stealing
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
It’s not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I’m mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin’
I’ve been wrong, I’ve been down
To the bottom of every bottle
Despite words in my head
Scream “Are we having fun yet?”
Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no
