[Verse 1]
I've got my back to the wall
At the doorway of forever
Tried to make my great escape
But now my hands can't find the lever
Seems my mind's made up
But my heart, it feels so hollow
The unintended consequence
Of bitter pills I've had to swallow
[Chorus 1]
Once in a while when you smile
I'm reminded
Of words that you said
[?] meanings are blinded
And cut me to the bone
But I have to find out on my own
[Verse 2]
I heard a voice [?]
Saying stand up and deliver
So I tore off all my clothes
And washed my sins in the river
And now they're swimming upstream
But I can't unlock the riddle
I end up twisted, tossed and turned around
And stranded in the middle
[Chorus 2]
Caught in-between misery
And I'm stressing
Wearing a curse
To disguise all my blessings
I'm sinking like a stone
But I have to find out on my own
[Verse 3]
I got miles left to go
Before I get to where I'm going
But the grass keeps getting greener
And I hear that [?] growing
So if I don't make it back
Please tell my sister and my brother
To hold onto all you've got
When all you've got is one another
[Chorus 3]
[?] all the lies and the lines I've spoken
But every door closed
Means a window is broken
To light the way back home
But I have to find out on my own
