Turn around,
You can't face up to me
I stand my ground
I'm just what I seem to be
Why in the world,
Would you give me a second look?
Except I'm up here,
And you're down there,
You'll never know what it took
You don't care what it took
The look in your eyes,
As I Turn on the light
The look in your eyes,
A look of surprise
Sneakin' Around,
In this one trick town,
You can't face up to me
I know your crowd,
And they're not that proud,
At least not from what I've seen
Flies in the ink leave
Footprints across the sea
Trace them back to where it all gets had,
You find the cuts never run too deep
The cuts never run too deep
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do
No, no
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do
I stand my ground
I'm just what I seem to be
You swung? me down
For So long, for so long
The weight that I carry,
Knowin what they've done to us
How many names does it take,
'till they blame,
The people you always should trust?
The people you always should trust
The look in your eyes,
As I Turn on the light
The look in your eyes,
The look of surprise
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do
No, no
How many times have I tried?
Just to get away from you,
And you reeled me back
How many times have I lied?
That there's nothing that I can do
'Cause I can't face up to you
