Lyrics

Without a Crutch (2)

La, la, la If I don't know where I am today
It's not because I'm far away
Or even cause I drink to much
And then again, not quite enough
I try to put it into the world
Instead of what our love deserves
Maybe we just slipped too much
How can I stand without a crutch?
La, la, la What would all our friendships say,
If we bled it all the way?
It's not as if our hearts are tugged
Why do we rub ourselves this rough?
It's hard to know where this came from
And if it's best left out of song
I don't await barbarians
They never leave their maskings on
La, la, la You're a stone and my papers rough
Scissors this blunt still can cut
It's not a game we're playing
The die's not cast but it rolls to me
La, la, la
