Twisted Tongues

Caught between a crossfire
Separate from all your thoughts
Stranded where, you choose to let
Good judgement stop

You are walkin' around with your head in the clouds
Who really knows when you'll come back down
I'll be the grounding voice, but I don't even think that you know

Your world is crashing down, no one can hold your ground
Can't go another round who will come save you now?
And I won't be the one to fucking hold my tongue
I don't know what you want, I've given all I got
Feel the weight on your shoulder
Fair-weather friend, I know it's getting colder
Can you feel the weight on your shoulder
Fair-weather friend, it's getting colder

Floodgates have opened and I can't keep them closed
The waters rising, left you to drown below
I'm treading water to keep myself afloat
Can't watch you sink to the depths alone

Look me in my eyes, tell me what you see
I've been awake and I can't take anymore
I won't lose sleep, no I won't waste my time
When I stare in your eyes, I don't know what I see
If I see anything. Are there still pieces of you shining through?
Are there still pieces of the one I knew?

But why am I getting caught up in everything that's going on?
I lost my nerve, get a hold of it

Your world is crashing down, no one can hold your ground
Can't go another round who will come save you now?
And I won't be the one to fucking hold my tongue
I don't know what you want, I've given all I got

Your world is crashing down, no one can hold your ground
Can't go another round who will come save you now?
And I won't be the one to fucking hold my tongue
I don't know what you want, I've given all I got
Feel the weight on your shoulder
Fair-weather friend, I know it's getting colder
Can you feel the weight on your shoulder
Fair-weather friend, it's getting colder

Before you turn away, take a good look remember my face
Before you turn away, take a good look remember my face
