Digging myself into a deeper hole Just to remind me that I can Soaring high, until the whole world lies beneath me Just to pray that I'll land Running away, as fast as I can Just to keep my feet off the ground Calling for someone, in the dark Then throwing punches, all around Sometimes I can be such a mess The only thing left, unclean You can stick around and try to save me Stay for awhile, scope out this startling scene Don't be alarmed, this is only a test Smile at me, give me your best Don't try to appease me, I'll make my own way Open your eyes, acknowledge what I have to say I can make such a mess, you know Only to have you pick me clean I could turn you pretty world upside-down And make nothing as it seems Keep walking the line, honey And I'll continue to watch you lean Swaying back, forth, falling even Lie to me again Tell me you know what I mean For I am the wind That throws you off balance And you are the filth That makes me unclean
