Standing by myself on the sidewalk
nothing in this world could make me talk
i'm nailed to this floor where there is no air
alone i see myself and stare
locked inside this world you gave me
it's lonely here through the smoke i can't see clear
And i know all the ways and i'll try
and i've seen all the places i get eyed
if i bear myself in the yard
would the end of the day always seem so hard
Wait for the world to turn around
then i won't go up or down
gentle winds must sometimes sit
the face that looks on in my mirror
And i know all the ways and i can try
and i've seen all the places where i hide
if i bear myself out in the yard
would the end of the day always be so hard
Standing on the edge of the wall
sometimes i get too close and i fall, yeah
And i know all the ways and i can try
and i've seen all the places where i hide
if i bear myself in the yard
would the end of the day always be so hard
Well all the nights last a thousand years
when you're in a time that feels so near
i'll just say you were the word i found
and then i won't go up or down
and i know all the ways and i can try
and i've seen all the places where i hide
if i bear myself in the yard
would the end of the day always be so hard
standing on the edge of the wall
sometimes i look down and i fall, yeah
Just standing on the edge of the wall
i always go to far and i fall, yeah
