The truth runs wild
Like a tear down a cheek
Trying to save face, and daddy heart break
I'm lying through my teethThis voice inside
Has been eating at me
Trying to replace the love that I fake
With what we both needThe truth runs wild
Like kids on concrete
Trying to sedate, my mind in its cage
And numb what I seeAwake, wide eyed
I'm screaming at me
Trying to keep faith and picture his face
Staring up at meWithout losing a piece of me
How do I get to heaven?
Without changing a part of me
How do I get to heaven?
All my time is wasted
Feeling like my heart's mistaken, oh
So if I'm losing a piece of me
Maybe I don't want heaven?The truth runs wild
Like the rain to the sea
Trying to set straight the lines that I trace
To find some release
This voice inside
Has been eating at meTrying to embrace the picture I paint
And colour me freeWithout losing a piece of me
How do I get to heaven?
Without changing a part of me
How do I get to heaven?All my time is wasted
Feeling like my heart's mistaken, oh
So if I'm losing a piece of me
Maybe I don't want heaven?So I'm counting to fifty
Counting to fifty, counting to fifty
So I'm counting to fifty
Counting to fifty, counting to fifty
So I'm counting to fifty
Counting to fifty, counting to fifty
So I'm counting to fifty
Counting to fifty, counting to fiftyWithout losing a piece of me
How do I get to heaven?
Without changing a part of me
How do I get to heaven?All my time is wasted
Feeling like my heart's mistaken, oh
So if I'm losing a piece of me
Maybe I don't want heaven?The truth runs wild
Like a tear down a cheek
