[Intro: Toryn Green]
Whoa-huh-oh (2×)
[Verse 1: Toryn Green]
I can read your thoughts, not your words and they're killing me
I can feel the hurt through the lies and it's killing me!
Wake up
Your words paralyze
Wake up
Your trust will survive
[Pre-Chorus 1: Toryn Green]
Between two worlds
Both wrong and right
The Choice you make
Will never divide
[Chorus 1: Toryn Green]
If today you got it right
And the emptiness you fight's finally okay, okay
As reality fades
If tomorrow's got it wrong
We're not meant to be alone
Just not alright, alright
As we die here tonight
When your throwin' it all away!
Whoa-huh-oh
Whoa-huh-oh
[Verse 2: Toryn Green]
Don't you wanna know why
Won't you take off this disguise?
[Pre-Chorus 2: Toryn Green]
Between two worlds
So black and white
The Choice you make
Will never divide
Open your eyes!
[Chorus 2: Toryn Green]
If today you got it right
And the emptiness you fight's finally okay, okay
As reality fades
If tomorrow's got it wrong
We're not meant to be alone
Just not alright, alright
As we die here tonight
When your throwin' it all away!
Yeah!
[Verse 3: Toryn Green]
We must try
Please just try!
I can read your thoughts, not your words and their killing me
Killing me
Killing me!
[Chorus 3: Toryn Green]
If today you got it right
And the emptiness you fight's finally okay, okay
As reality fades
If tomorrow's got it wrong
We're not meant to be alone
Just not alright, alright
As we die here tonight
As we die here tonight
Never okay, okay
As we die here tonight
When you're throwin' it all away!
Whoa-huh-oh
Whoa-huh-oh
(Throwin' it all (2×))
Throwin' it all, thrown' it all
Away
