So when they get sick of you calling
And they just don't care if you're falling, fast
When all of those eyes are on you
And the weight of it rests upon your back
You slam the door hard as you run to your car and collapse.
And you never go fast enough to
Leave what has passed you in the past
And they're pointing their fingers and rolling their eyes
Making your struggles seem trite
Gushing with laughter and eloquent sighs
You don't want to break but you might.
And you won't let them in,
And you won't let them see.
Well then how strong can you be?
When you look upon all your devices
And you stop telling lies, are you twice as scared?
'Cause everyone's sure they're honest,
And everyone's certain they're aware.
As they stumble and stagger
Like blind drunken fools down the stairs.
Waking up all of the neighbors
And shouting about their selfish cares.
Just pointing their fingers and rolling their eyes
Making your struggles seem trite
Gushing with laughter and eloquent sighs
You don't want to break but you might
And you won't let them in
And you won't let them see
These moments when there's not a thing to believe in
And all your decisions are just thrown in your face,
And everything's so scattered and it seems out of place
And the only light visible is hazily streaming
Through cracks in the wall that you made.
But you won't let them in
And you won't let them see.
Well then how strong can you be?
