Looking away from what I am
Thinking about too many whys
Hope tomorrow never comes
Sense of guilt I can't replace

Many books I haven't read
Thought I'd find my answers in
Caught between my heart and mind

Oh come on get me
Do you trust me
I am shaking to the bone
I am drifting
I am drifting
I will fall

Come and get me down
Don't leave
And get me down
I'll take it
You get me down
Don't fake it
You shake me down
We are the smoke

How can I learn to overcome
When emotions are on fire
Self destruction is a crime
Such that cowards only do

Now there ain't no going back
Keep on walking on a wire
'Till the day I start to fall

So someone please
Just tell me why
I always fail to make you happy
The birds in skies
The goats in trees
The sunset light
And the perfectness of lives

I don't believe the things I say
When the wind is blowing high
And it's too late to have regrets
You made me smile

Come and get me down
Don't leave
And get me down
I'll take it
You get me down
Don't fake it
You shake me down
We are the smoke

Oh come on get me
Do you trust me
I am shaking to the bone
I am drifting
I am drifting
I am drifting off too far
Come on get me
Do you trust me
I am shaking to the bone
I am drifting
I am drifting
I am drifting away from you
