cast away the hopes of someone ever changing you but the thrill it takes to get there is something all brand new the reasons why i stay are always justified i never told you what that means i never told you anything step aside take a breath let it be don't look back it's gonna free your mind free your mind after everyone you walk on you turn your head away i know it burns you up inside but your walls run so high i've got something to tell you i know you know what it means i know it's something you see the pain that hides so deep inside will soon show its head the truth will surface as you lie awake and the dream will be dead
