Lyrics
There's no need to ask if you measure up
Time seems to flow from a gentle cup
The change in your face says you've had enough
It's your heart, I won't ask for the biggest cut
And the day flies by - we're not done with it
All the chains that bind - gonna shake 'em a bit
But are we alright? Have we ever been? (says you)
Yet we go on and on on...
I'm a slave to everything that weighs me down
In my wake, a thousand promises I've scattered around
But I've moved on since then
my feet are blackened from the street
the neighbours always ask 'what's with him'?
all this frantic running in his sleep
(And the) day flies by - we're not done with it
All the chains that bind - gonna shake 'em a bit
But are we alright? Have we ever been? (says you)
If your heart must hide - let's uncover it
Tunnel deep inside - to recover it
In our grief we're blind - now we're out of it (for good)
White flags tumbling/fumbling down
The moment our love surrendered (somehow)
Whatever you can take
You better hold it on your hand (somehow)
We're planning our escape
I'd rather be forgiven - than be given a second chance
Day flies by - we're not done with it
All the chains that bind - gonna shake 'em a bit
But are we alright? Have we ever been? (says you)
If your heart must hide - let's uncover it
Tunnel deep inside - to recover it
In our grief we're blind - now we're out of it (for good)
We go on and on and on...
