I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step i take is another mistake to you

(caught in the undertow just caught in teh undertow)

 

I've become so numb i can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming thia all i want to do

Is be more liek me and be less like you

 

Can't you see that you're smothering me

Holding to tightly afraid to lose control

Cause everything that you thought i would be

Has fallen apart right in fromt of you

(caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

Every step that i take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

And every second i waste is more than i can take

 

I've become so numb i can't feel you there

I've become do tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all i want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

 

And i know

I may end up falling too

But i know

You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

 

I've become so numb i can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I'm becoming this all i want to do

Is be more like me andbe less like you 

 

I've become so numb i can't feel you there

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

The stars will cry
The blackest tears tonight
And this is the moment that I live for
I can smell the ocean air
And here I am
Pouring my heart onto these rooftops
Just a ghost to the world
That's exactly
Exactly what I need

From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day

For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
As you gasp for air tonight
I'd scream this song right in your face
If you were here
I swear I won't miss a beat
Cause I never
Never have before

From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day

Of our dying day
Of our dying day
Of our dying!!!

For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
And you gasp for air tonight!!

From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day

Our dying day
Of our dying!!!

Will they open their eyes
And realize we are one

Walked away, heard them say

"Poison hearts will never change, walk away again"

Turned away in disgrace

Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within

 

It's hard to notice gleaming from teh sky

When you're staring at the cracks

It's hard to notice what is passing by with eyes lowered

 

You... walked away, heard them say

"Poisoned hearts will never change, walk away again"

 

All the cracks, they lead right to me

And all the cracks will crawl right through me

All the cracks, they lead right to me

And all the cracks will crawl right through me, and i fell apart

 

As i... walked away, heard them say

"Poisoned hearts will never change"

Walked away again

Turned away in disgrace

Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within

 

How the hell did we wind up like this?
Why weren't we able, to see the signs that we missed
And try turn the tables

I wish you'd unclench your fists, and unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
But don't think it's too late

Nothing's wrong, just as long as
You know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when

Well I'd hope that since we're here anyway
That we could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up staying
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Let's rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a Hollywood horror

Nothing's wrong, just as long as
You know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
I'm gonna make it all right but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
