Staring at paperfaces expressions like empty pages day after day

Waiting for the light to change now reaching for a cloud to come down

And cover me



Can't shut you out can't get you out slide away slide away slide away slide away

Can't take you down can't watch you drown

Slide away slide away slide away slide away



Waiting for the world to change now disillusion takes a bite out and swallows me

Looking for a way to get out wishing that the rush would come down

And smother me



Can't shut you out can't get you out slide away slide away slide away slide away

Can't take you down can't watch you drown

Slide away slide away slide away slide away



If you can learn to be yourself then that's okay

If you can find a reason now don't drift away



Walking down streets to nowhere stepping on feet with no cares losing myself



Can't shut you out can't get you out slide away slide away slide away slide away

Can't take you down can't watch you drown

Slide away slide away slide away slide away



Can't shut you out can't get you out slide away slide away slide away slide away

Can't take you down can't watch you drown

Slide away slide away slide away slide away
