Maybe I've been hurt
Maybe I've been saved for something worse
can't say
If you asked me now
what's in a crowd?
there's thousands of faces
with thousands of ways to be hurt for free

But this I know I always make the friends that never stay
I always make the friends that never stay

Feelings can't be felt
I couldn't let the ground beneath me melt.
Not me
They spread things about
they twist things around
the mask is a screen till the whispers are so loud they hurt
I tried to stay

That someone could of made up something so cruel
that someone could of poisoned that last mouthful of you
that someone could of played with something untrue
that took such delight in the last breath of you

Couldn't bear to stay
Couldn't tear away
is that emotional
or reproachable
But this I know
I always make amends when it's too late
I always make amends when it's too late

Was there something I could of said
Something I did
Someone I could of called
Something I read

They spread things about
they twist things around
the mask is a screen till the whispers are so loud they hurt
I tried to stay

That someone could of made up something so cruel
that someone could of poisoned that last mouthful of you
that someone could of played with something untrue
that took such delight in the last breath of you
