But when I'm done freezing I want to be alone
Never want my hand cut off
Never want a hacking cough
Never need a cliffside push
Never turn my brain to mush
Always give me what I lack
Always take the best parts back
Always recognize your fate
Always just a moment late
Left is where I always turn
Left is how I'm forced to learn
Left the route my walking takes
Left alone with my mistakes
Up against the person who
Up 'til now I never knew
Up from hell the answer blew
Up or down it's up to you
Drop me off the Chinese wall
And peel my fingers off the rim
I come unglued while in midair and land to reform
Limb by limb
And I am taken far away...
Lingering slowly melting away
Tossed with the salad and baled with the hay
Pooling the water that drips from above
Trampled by lambs pecked by the dove
The shoulder that I leaned on was carved out of stone But when I'm done freezing I want to be alone Never want my hand cut off Never want a hacking cough Never need a cliffside push Never turn my brain to mush Always give me what I lack Always take the best parts back Always recognize your fate Always just a moment late Left is where I always turn Left is how I'm forced to learn Left the route my walking takes Left alone with my mistakes Up against the person who Up 'til now I never knew Up from hell the answer blew Up or down it's up to you Drop me off the Chinese wall And peel my fingers off the rim I come unglued while in midair and land to reform Limb by limb And I am taken far away... Lingering slowly melting away Tossed with the salad and baled with the hay Pooling the water that drips from above Trampled by lambs pecked by the dove Explain Request ×
