[Intro]

Fight these eyes

They're drawing you inside


[Verse 1]

Signed my name in marker

Watched the clouds as they got darker

Felt it start to slip away

All the schemes were made and plotted

All the rules have been forgotten now

I made it by the skin of my teeth again this time


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm waiting

Still waiting

To get away and make a change

Seasons last forever in this maze


[Chorus]

Forget your heart

It's weighing you down inside

As you confide your life to someone else

Maybe we're scared to be alone

We're not prepared to throw the stones

And watch them drift out of our control


[Verse 2]

I braced my body for the sudden impact

That was more than I ever thought that it would be

And when it knocked me over

I've never felt more stiff and sober now

I'm struggling to get up and run away


[Pre-Chorus]

I'm wasting

I'm wasting my life away

I've gotta change

I've gotta burn the book and turn the page


[Chorus]

Forget your heart

It's weighing you down inside

As you confide your life to someone else

Maybe we're scared to be alone

We're not prepared to throw the stones

And watch them drift out of our control


[Bridge]

There's no return

To what you had when you started

Before you lost control

You will never recover

Fight these eyes

They're drawing you inside

Lie down and break down, you're dead

Lie down before you lose control


[Chorus]

Forget your heart

It's weighing you down inside

As you confide your life to someone else

Maybe we're scared to be alone

We're not prepared to throw the stones

And watch them drift out of our control
