Don't you ever wish that time Had learned to heal instead of fly And told us all the reasons why It had to slip away?
For something always out of reach It has a mighty hold on me Buried by and stuck beneath The things that I can't change I keep on falling forward, but it all just feels the same
Is it right? Is it wrong? If I'm losing my grip, 'cause I've been holding on so long Yeah, I've tried to be strong It just hurts to hang on once the calluses wear off You can try to put together what is bound to fall apart Or take care of the pieces, 'cause you can't unbreak a heart
The body's always keeping score While a gentle mind holds the door And lets me back to sweep the floor To find out what I've lost
Like the memories inside these years That dance behind the curtains where I hide my deep and darkest fears I thought were dead and gone But they've been with me all along
Is it right? Is it wrong? If I'm losing my grip, 'cause I've been holding on so long Yeah, I've tried to be strong It just hurts to hang on once the calluses wear off You can try to put together what is bound to fall apart Or take care of the pieces, 'cause you can't unbreak a heart
Maybe time is better spent Never making sense of it at all We'll cut a tree down to bridge a gap Burn a field to grow it back strong
But is it right, or is it wrong? Is it right, or is it wrong to be holding on so long? 'Cause I've tried to be strong It just hurts to hang on once the calluses wear off You can try to put together what is bound to fall apart Or take care of the pieces, 'cause you can't unbreak a heart
