lyrics

Somethings going to break
Moving in the dark
Leaning on your old ways
Living in the past
Your future told
History repeating

As if you couldn't break from that spider web
As if you couldn't change your mind instead
As if you couldn't

You keep saying there's no gain
In letting go of your tight rein
And you keep telling me how you can not change
As if you couldn't

The road ahead is closed
Direction lost
But you don't see the detour
Another chance to turn a different way
But you don't see the road signs

As if you couldn't chance a new mistake
As if you couldn't make that final break
As if you couldn't

You keep saying there's no gain
In letting go of your tight rein
And you keep telling me how you can not change
As if you couldn't
