Slowly Fall To Pieces
(Parsons, Wood, Sawyer, Dale)

You're so scared
Of saying something wrong
That you say nothing
You take your time
Your patience is unique
But no ones giving in
You're so polite
You always watch your words
And mind your manners
And as time goes by
It leaves you high and dry
You'll never change
You're a slave to
What's in your way

But you don't complain
You just keep it all
Inside you
As life just passes by
It's something you can't stop
It's something you can't stop

Your life's always on rewind
You stop, then slowly
Fall to pieces
You always try to keep it all inside
You stop, then slowly fall to pieces

They'll make you crawl
For what you thought was yours
Their hands push down on you
You stay estranged
From what you used to be
Your broken by your pain

But you don't complain
You just keep it all
Inside you
As life just passes by
It's something you can't stop
It's something you can't stop

Your life's always on rewind
You stop, then slowly
Fall to pieces
You always try to keep it all inside
You stop, then slowly fall to pieces
You're so scared
Of saying something wrong
You say nothing at all
So much time
You've wasted on compromise
Show the world what lies
Behind your eyes
Show me what's inside
As a friend of misery
You're empty

Your life's always on rewind
You stop, then slowly
Fall to pieces
You always try to keep it all inside
You stop, then slowly fall to pieces
You slowly fall away
Fall away again…
