lyrics
You've got me hanging on to your every word
Tied up with only string
I can't free myself from this tangled web you've made me
I'm trying to make all these puzzle pieces fit
But you can't connect two wrong ends
I can't keep any of my promises anymore
Worn out, worn down is not the way I want to live
Somehow I've gotta find the strength to jump off that cliff
And find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling... and falling
Nothing I do ever seems to suffice
Come on, can you just admit I'm right for once?
Get off your high horse, drive me to an airport
Cause I'm done, I'm done with you
Worn out, worn down is not the way I want to live
Somehow I've gotta find the strength to jump off that cliff
And find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling... and falling
Cause worn out, worn down is not the way I want to live
Gotta find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling
Find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling... and falling.
Tied up with only string
I can't free myself from this tangled web you've made me
I'm trying to make all these puzzle pieces fit
But you can't connect two wrong ends
I can't keep any of my promises anymore
Worn out, worn down is not the way I want to live
Somehow I've gotta find the strength to jump off that cliff
And find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling... and falling
Nothing I do ever seems to suffice
Come on, can you just admit I'm right for once?
Get off your high horse, drive me to an airport
Cause I'm done, I'm done with you
Worn out, worn down is not the way I want to live
Somehow I've gotta find the strength to jump off that cliff
And find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling... and falling
Cause worn out, worn down is not the way I want to live
Gotta find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling
Find my net, the one who will welcome me with open arms
The one protecting me from the harm that would befall me
If I were to keep falling, and falling, and falling... and falling.
