about

a one sided conversation

lyrics

This hurts too much,
How do people stand it?
How do they go to parties
And talk with their insides on fire?

Wither to the touch, asses the damage
File a new report, jury left the court
Nothing to salvage

Chorus
Climbing up the stairs, old nightmares
Catching me in new daylight
Dreaming unaware, no I’m not here
Flapping but I can’t take flight
Down a hall hallway, I’m a whole way away
From feeling right, allright?
You were one call away, what I’d give to hear you say
Maybe that’s just life
Ohh it hurts too much

This hurts too much,
Beating up on the ribcage
How do you know better? Well you got your letter
I’ve got my blank page

When’s enough, enough- aren’t you afraid?
Bashing bruise on skin, come on let me in
What’s it going to take?

Chorus
Climbing up the stairs, old nightmares
Catching me in new daylight
Dreaming unaware, no I’m not here
Flapping but I can’t take flight
Down a hall hallway, I’m a whole way away
From feeling right, allright?
You were one call away, what I’d give to hear you say
Maybe that’s just life
Ohh it hurts too much

This hurts too much,
shuck the heart and lay the soil
Down in the pressure, what do you like better?
The diamond or the oil?
And I am buried. Can I survive it?
Well there’s only one way, only one, only one way
To find out

Chorus
Climbing up the stairs, old nightmares
Catching me in new daylight
Dreaming unaware, no I’m not here
Flapping but I can’t take flight
Down a hall hallway, I’m a whole way away
From feeling right, allright?
You were one call away, what I’d give to hear you say
Maybe that’s just life
Ohh it hurts too much
