Don't just wait for things
To blow up in your pretty face

Lift the weight
Try not to let it slip away
And you may find yourself again

I feel people just don't know you like I do
Why you're making it so hard to see
When there's something wrong
It goes on and on

I know the drill
You've got your ball and chain
I found out the second round
That some things never change

Open my eyes
And let the days come over me
And maybe it will go away

I feel people just don't know you like I do
Why you're making it so hard to see
When there's something wrong
It goes on and on

You'll see not everybody's here
To break your heart
So there is a price to pay
To be someone you're not

I know the drill
You've got your ball and chain
I found out the second round
That some things never change

Open my eyes
And let the days come over me
And maybe it will go away
