What happens when you don't know the right words
when you don't know what to say
What happens when everything's wrong and you don't dare speak
cuz you're afraid of the sound
When all you can do is just go wrong
when you're tired of singin' that same old song.
When you don't have anything else.. to lose...
And you're tired of being.. abused.

Why did I change the words to this song?
I guess it's just because everything's goin' wrong.
When you feel like nothin's changin then you realize it's all going down
But you can't speak - god - you just can't make a sound
and dropping it comes at such a price.
And you can't go on... oh but you gotta...
And more than anything...
More than anything...

I wish I had been better
Wish I was glad
I wish that I had been a better friend
Yet here I am standing at the doorway of my life
I could step in or I could step out
But baby I've decided to make it out
Cuz damn it's hard..
And I just can't make it anymore!
So run while you can
Just make it out
And know that I tried without a doubt
Run run so far...
And make it out of here alive...

You can run and you can hide but you'll still find yourself
And pushing away comes at such a price
And you're stuck in a corner but nobody's there to watch you fall
You're stuck inside a timeglass with no way out
and you're time's running swiftly and it's running out...
And you want it to...
because you can't live with it anymore...
and more than anything...
more than anything...

I wish I had been better
Wish I was glad
I wish that I had been a better friend
Yet here I am standing at the doorway of my life
I could step in or I could step out
But baby I've decided to make it out
Cuz damn it's hard..
And I just can't make it anymore!
So run while you can
Just make it out
And know that I tried without a doubt
Run run so far...
And make it out of here alive...

And live...
Live your life...
Just go...
And live.
