How can you not see that the fire in your eyes could be misinterpreted
Could cause us both to make a scene and never be able to get over it
Listening to myself I'm starting to agree
That maybe all of this thinking is beginning to get the better of me

Pulling on a shoestring the thing is that I'm a afraid of falling
Right back on my feet again with nothing left to complain about in the morning
Be happy they tell me of course it doesn't last
But that's no reason just to disengage the past

You're wearing away at the best part
Should you only stay if it's not hard
Turn your stereo up and finally let the noise
Get rid of every silent moment get rid of every doubting voice

I saw the chicago skyline drift back out of focus
Without love positioned my thoughts on whoever was closest
These images still crystal clear
And I still enjoy being here so why must I always protest
I could be wrong but I feel like we've talked about all of this before
Comes out lacking closure when all you do is tell me to ignore
It
Can't be like this forever so I suppose that we just learn to smile until it all gets better
Waiting for our turn

You're wearing away at the best part
Should you only stay if it's not hard
Turn your stereo up and finally let the noise
Get rid of every silent moment get rid of every doubting voice

You're wearing away at the best part
Should you only stay if it's not hard
Turn your stereo up and finally let the noise
Get rid of every silent moment get rid of every doubting voice
