Slip Away

Running headlong dead-end street Sinking slowly in too deep Falling faster almost out of sight Getting harder just to see the light Something lies in wait for me Hear it coming but I cannot see Feel it tearing me apart Question burning in my brain Hold the answer but it won't remain Play for time but there's nothing left Second guessing myself to death I can't believe That you would curl up and die I can't believe That you would cut every tie I can't believe - there's nothing I can say I can't believe - that you would let go Let go Let go And let slip away And you say that I don't have to stay But he pain in your eyes gives you away And you're talking so tough But I hear the words You're going to throw it all away I can't believe That you would curl up and die I can't believe That you would cut every tie I can't believe - there's nothing I can say I can't believe - that you would let go Let go Let go And let slip away
