to wax poetic
the truth would knock you down
so iâm not allowed
like paramedics
i save you when you drown
all the panic and all the weight
throw them away
dilution takes first place tonight
unless a new excuse can cure the stage fright
breathe darling
donât it make easier the pain inside?
i canât do this all myself
so help me out
iâm fading, falling now
just tell me youâre in love
and weâll save farewell
hold off for a while
temper tantrums
and golden lullabies
in endless supply.
i trade the sidelines
for prime-time junior high
take the battles weâve had to date
and multiply
the constant fear you drive away
depression set to loop the instant replay
breathe darling
donât it make easier the pain inside?
i canât do this all myself
so help me out
iâm fading, falling now
just tell me youâre in love
and weâll save farewell
hold off for a while
yeah, weâll save farewell
hold off for a while
now i canât feel a thing
a secret needs its plan
lives move closer
my feet creep slow in the sand
so please donât manipulate
the things that i believe
i know who you are
and who you want to be
breathe darling
donât it make easier the pain inside?
i canât do this all myself
so help me out
iâm fading, falling now
just tell me youâre in love
and weâll save farewell
hold off for a while
yeah, weâll save farewell
hold off for a while
yeah, weâll save farewell
but just for a while
