I went out looking for the answers
and never left my town.
I'm no good at understanding,
but I'm good at standing ground.
And when I asked a corner preacher
I couldn't hear him for my youth.
Some people get religion
some people get the truth.
I never get the truth,
I never get the truth.
Chorus:
I know the darkness pulls on you.
But it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in
you belong to someone
and when you feel like giving in
or the coming of the end,
like your heart could break in two,
someone loves you.
I laid a suitcase on my chest
so I could feel somebody's weight.
And I laid you to rest
just to feel the give and take
I got a new interpretation
and it's a better point of view,
while you were looking for a landslide
I was looking out for you,
I was looking out for you,
someone's looking out for you
Chorus:
I know the darkness pulls on you.
But it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in
you belong to someone
and when you feel like giving in
for the coming of the end,
like your heart can break in two,
someone loves you.
I am afraid of crossing lines.
I am afraid of flying blind.
afraid of inquiring minds.
Afraid of being left behind.
I close my eyes I think of you,
I take a step I think of you,
I catch my breath I think of you,
I cannot rest I think of you
Chorus:
My one and only wrecking ball,
and you're crashing through my walls.
When you're outside looking in
you belong to someone
and when you feel like giving in
or the coming of the end,
like your heart could break in two,
someone loves you.
and never left my town.
I'm no good at understanding,
but I'm good at standing ground.
And when I asked a corner preacher
I couldn't hear him for my youth.
Some people get religion
some people get the truth.
I never get the truth,
I never get the truth.
