lyrics

On and on I'm just pretending
On and on I just pretend I'm fine tonight
On and on it's never mending
On and on this never ending plight
Burns bright

I watch you cover your eyes

Faith never questioned isn't the answer
Breaking me down inside like a cancer

On and on I keep offending
On and on never ascending
Can't rewind
On and on you go defending
Litany so condescending
Peace of mind

Cover your eyes
I can't believe I was so surprised

Faith never questioned isn't the answer
Breaking me down inside like a cancer
Bleed me dry
Say goodbye

I took the long way home
They warned me not to go
I made it on my own
I took the long way home
I took the long way...

Faith never questioned isn't the answer
Breaking me down inside like a cancer
Bleed me dry (bleed me dry)
Say goodbye
