Lyrics

I don't want to feel this way

I don't want to experience these emotions

You come and I look away

When you approach, I avoid making eye contact

Forcing what I have to say

Feeling compelled to express what I need to say

It's allright, baby

Reassuring that everything is fine, baby

It's OK

Reaffirming that it's acceptable

We'll be together for a million days

We will remain together for an extended period


Finding that I've nothing left

Discovering that there's nothing remaining

Same old words same old tired bets

Using the same clichéd words and exhausted bets

Look around at the face I've kept

Observing the facade I've maintained on my face

It's allright, baby

Reassuring that everything is fine, baby

It's OK

Reaffirming that it's acceptable

We'll be together for a million days

We will remain together for an extended period


If love is a crop of rocks

If love is a tough and enduring foundation

Exposed by the tide

Exposed and revealed by life's challenges

Wrap me up in it

Envelop me in it until my last day

'Till the day I die

Expressing commitment to love

When did I become

Reflecting on when I changed

Split in two

Feeling divided into two parts

One half's a liar and

One part being deceitful

The other half's a fool

The other part being foolish, especially for you


I can't face another day

Unable to face another day

One more phone ring one more drunk display

More phone calls, more public displays of drunkenness

Scrub your back to wash the dirt away

Using intimacy to cleanse and remove the stains of life

It's allright, baby

Reassuring that everything is fine, baby

It's OK

Reaffirming that it's acceptable

We'll be together for a million days

We will remain together for an extended period


I don't want to feel this way

I don't want to experience these emotions

You come and I look away

When you approach, I avoid making eye contact

Forcing what I have to say

Feeling compelled to express what I need to say

It's allright, baby

Reassuring that everything is fine, baby

It's OK

Reaffirming that it's acceptable

We'll be together for a million days

We will remain together for an extended period


If love is a crop of rocks

If love is a tough and enduring foundation

Exposed by the tide

Exposed and revealed by life's challenges

Wrap me up in it

Envelop me in it until my last day

'Till the day I die

Expressing commitment to love

When did I become

Reflecting on when I changed

Split in two

Feeling divided into two parts

One half's a liar and

One part being deceitful

The other half's a fool for you

The other part being foolish, especially for you
