lyrics

~ HIATUS ~

Here we are again my friend
I can’t give you more than this
My heart is on hiatus but
It’s still looking for a door to let you in

You don’t know this pain I hide
Driven by fear, I lay in wait
Time won’t hesitate for no one at all

Can’t you see the state I’m in
I’m lost again
Cryin’ out, heart on sleeve
Save me... from myself

Hush now baby don’t you cry
Don’t say a word, as it belies
All that you’re thinking, though misleading
You will surely find
Time and time again the situation you are in
Is extra ordinary, ordinary, ordinarily
No time for your tears, now baby, there’s no saving grace
We’re bound to break in, break up and break down again

Here we are again my friend
I can’t give you more than this
My heart is on hiatus but
It’s still looking for a door to let you in
