Turn

Break the news and break it down There's a desperation in this town Shut'em out by keeping inside Shut off the lights on the way out Such a sad scene such a waste To choose the shallow and the fake Keep it simple keep it straight And throw the safest bet away Takes a while To turn around Takes all night To pass it by And I think it's time to leave Back and forth through all these years Always close still nowhere near Fooled to trust and to let in Though did I somehow almost win Slept with fear woke up with loss There is no place left here for us So I close my eyes for another year Somehow I'll work my way out far from here Takes a while To close your eyes Takes my life To watch it die And I think it's time to leave
