lyrics

Leave well enough alone,
You won't need it when it's said and done.
Hear every word
Falling on a sense of doubt you have long ignored

Can't give one good reason,
Now the best part's gone.
You played into it so,
What if's? Listen…

You want your money back,
Hate what you've bought into.
Sleep in a body bag…
You're spitting and spitting,
Here we are.

Better leave town,
Before it gets out.
Never listen, so afraid of running backwards,
On your own
So you think could there be a little something more.

Here…
Here and now, let it go under.
There's no peace above water
Slowly slip beneath.

They go hunt in packs
They won't call you back
Higher the wave is coming now
Always, there is one more way

To get out of here
To get out of this place
Now running

Are you running away, are you stalling?
You can only see one side of it
Are you running away, are you standing?
You can only see one side of it

An immediate soul,
Then no more
The better you sow
The better you grow

Better than some
Some better than you
Bare your soul
Bare your soul.
