The Cracks

I’ll be the snake dear

You’ll make a run for it

We always said that i would never hold you back

We wear our parents' skin

keep all our demons in

until we slip through all the cracks

You stare me down now

I feel the fire burning

I don’t know if I’ve ever felt like this before

I know we just can’t win

Before I let you in

already halfway out the door

Eye, Eye, Eye x2

I bait the switch now

You might have fell for it

You always think I know exactly what I need

You start up every fight

I think I’m always right

I’m just surprised when I still bleed

You settle down now

I think you saw it coming

I guess you knew that I would always want you back

So now we say goodbye

I let you see me cry

until we slip back through the cracks

Eye, Eye, Eye x2

And if I say I want you back

I want you back

What is to say if you come back

will it be what it was?

You went too far

went way too far

You went too far

went way too far

Out again we go

I take it back

so we don’t hurt just like before

And every time it burns a little more

I’ll leave again but never learn to shut the door

Eye, Eye, Eye x2

And if I say I want you back

I want you back

What is to say if you come back

will it be what it was?

You went too far

went way too far

We went too far

went way too far
