Quay

"Don't you walk. Run." she said

We live in a drinking town with a big football problem

Cry out loud, shake it down

I'll be in pieces before night is done

I am calm, yet shattered like a broken windshield

She begs me to fall in love with her

Like it's the first time

But it's never the same

When you glue it back together

You still see the cracks

And I keep on slipping

So wait while I break

Cause I know I can't take much more than this

Sunday's bells ring and hell's on my doorstep, tempting

Don't you reach out to me

Just to hold on to something real

Then she begs me to be in love

Like it's the first time

But it's never the same

When you glue it back together

You still see the cracks

And I keep on slipping

You know it's never the same

When you glue it back together

You still see the cracks

And I keep on slipping

You spit words off the tip of your tongue

But you forget that the ears that you trust

Come back with everything that you said

You wear make-up to cover the fake-up

Soft as concrete, smooth as sandpaper

They come back with everything that you said

With everything that you said

Everything that you said

With everything that you said

You know it's never the same

When you glue it back together

You still see the cracks

And I keep slipping

And I keep, and I keep slipping

I keep slipping away
