[Verse 1]
I open the news
It's time that we choose
Play a simpler view
This place is pale and it's blue
I tear my eyes loose
From this sleep breaking news
Guess I'm paying my dues
It's just a valid excuse
How our ideas of hell
Just thinking we weren't jealous
Now we're nothing but zealous
To what our bodies now tell us
It's too close I guess
Though we survived this test
It's not on my chest
Never got put to rest
[Chorus]
I'm not the one who does the things I know
I preach a lot before I have a go
I know I hurt you as my friend and foe
But I still love you more than you could know
[Verse 2]
Stuck in my head
My ego is fed
Feels like I'm ahead
Inside I'm just dead
Betrayal at best
I've created this mess
It's about time I confess
But people know more or less
Cause time after time
I leave whatever I find
Stop to apologize
But that's the way of my kind
You're getting so near
That's just what I had feared
It's getting so clear
I'm fully endeared
[Chorus]
I'm not the one who does the things I know
I preach a lot before I have a go
I know I hurt you as my friend and foe
But I still love you more than you could know
[Hook]
Guess I'm not
Where I
Want to believe
I am (x3)
Guess I'm not
Where I
Want to believe
[End]
Raised up in the sky
We breathe it all away
It's up to us as we hide
Well, we were here to stay
I know it seemed right
To choose and take a part
In a world we can buy
Watch us blow ourselves apart
I know it's too late
To choose another wrong
I won't go anywhere
I'll be here when you're gone
