about

lyrics

WE STUMBLED BLINDLY LIKE FOOLS
IN A CHILDREN’S PARTY GAME
WE STOPPED PLAYING BY THE RULES
AND NOTHING STAYED THE SAME
WE CUT EACH OTHER SO DEEP
AND EVERY WOUND HAS LEFT A SCAR
IT’S JUST THE WAY WE ARE

DO YOU REMEMBER HOW LOVE BURNED?
DO THE MEMORIES EVER STIR?
SO SAD WE CAN’T RETURN
TO JUST THE WAY WE WERE

TOO LATE FOR MAKING UP WHAT’S DONE IS DONE
NO END TO BREAKING UP OUR RACE IS RUN
TOO MUCH BLOODY WATER UNDERNEATH THE BRIDGE
TOO LATE FOR GIVING QUARTER NO DYING WISH

IT’S JUST THE WAY WE ARE
