There are things that I said I would never do
There are fears that I cannot believe have come true
For my soul is too sick and too little and too late
And myself, I have grown too weary to hate

The more I stay in here, the more it's not so clear
The more I stay in here, the more I disappear
As far as I have gone, I knew what side I'm on
But now I'm not so sure, the line begins to blur

Is there somebody on top of me? I don't know, I don't know
Isn't anybody stoppin' me? I don't know, I don't know
Well, I'm tryin' to hold my breath, I don't know, I don't know
Just how far down can I go? I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

As I lie here and stare, the fabric starts to tear
It's far beyond repair, and I don't really care
As far as I have gone, I knew what side I'm on
But now I'm not so sure, the line begins to blur

I am all alone this time around
Sometimes on the side I hear a sound
Places parallel, I know it's you
Feel the little pieces bleeding through

And on (and on) this goes on (and on)
And on (and on) and on (and on)
And on (and on) and on (and on)
And on (and on) and on (and on)
And on (and on) this goes on
And on and on
And on and on
And on and on
And on

Now that I've decided not to stay
I can feel me start to fade away
Everything is back where it belongs
I will be beside you before long

And on (and on) this goes on (and on)
And on (and on) and on (and on)
And on (and on) and on (and on)
And on (and on) and on (and on)
And on (and on) this goes on
And on and on
And on and on
And on and on

[Instrumental Bridge]

Ooh, we will never die
Ooh, beside you in time
Ooh, we will never die
Ooh, beside you in time

See the animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all... right where it belongs

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks?
Would you find yourself, find yourself afraid to see?

What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods, all the living and the dead
And you're really all alone?
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you used to know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is that all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks?
Would you find yourself, find yourself afraid to see?

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Everything
Is catching up with me
I awake
To find I'm not at all where I
Should be
And it feels
I'm getting to the end
And it's hard
To figure out what's real, and what's
Pretend

To break from what we're tied to
God knows how much I've tried to

And I am still inside you
And I am still inside you

I escape
Every now and then
And to think
I find myself back here again
And again
I used to know who I was
Until you came along
I return
To the only place I've ever felt
That I belong

To break from what we're tied to
God knows how much I've tried to

And I am still inside you
And I am still inside you
