[Verse 1]
He tiptoes from brick to brick
And skips the cracks or he gets sick
Counting sheep, losing sleep
Now his lids are heavyset
Run for it, they're on the prowl
These demons never make a sound
Cries ignored, this cardboard box
Will keep him dry for now
[Chorus]
Why do I give in
When I know it's not the only answer?
Run away to save my skin
When my angst is growing like a cancer
And oh, the things we'll say
When we're standing in our way
Maybe soon, this all will be
A distant memory
[Verse 2]
There might as well be bloodstains on this carpet floor
He's laying face down wondering what fighting back is for
Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
And I'll be singing when I turn around
He tiptoes from brick to brick
And skips the cracks or he gets sick
Counting sheep, losing sleep
Now his lids are heavyset
Run for it, they're on the prowl
These demons never make a sound
Cries ignored, this cardboard box
Will keep him dry for now
[Chorus]
Why do I give in
When I know it's not the only answer?
Run away to save my skin
When my angst is growing like a cancer
And oh, the things we'll say
When we're standing in our way
Maybe soon, this all will be
A distant memory
[Verse 2]
There might as well be bloodstains on this carpet floor
He's laying face down wondering what fighting back is for
Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
Don't even give 'em a chance to knock you down
And I'll be singing when I turn around
