Lyrics
The light, the light that bathed me
Cleaned my lens that I didn?t know was dirty
How long, how long have I been here, crying in the shower
I think it?s been a minute, the sun says an hour
I had my eyes closed and I was thinking of imaginary lines that I never cross
Something always stops me
Something always stops me
Something always stops me
What is there when you decline to take another?
What is there when you politely refuse?
You think it?s only there to catch you when you drop
Do you know there?s power there for you to use?
So I do what we all do, start by grabbing your attention
But then the song is over before the point is mentioned
Some things can?t be seen before they arrive
Things can?t be examined before they?re realized
Something always stops me
Something always stops me
Something always stops me
What is there when you decide to take another?
What is there when you forget all your blues?
You think they fly away, you hope the pain will stop
Do you know, you gave away all your clues?
What is there when you decline to take another?
What is there when you politely refuse?
You think it?s only there to catch you when you drop
Do you know there?s power there for you to use?
