Between Its Teeth

I can tell that you want to change it is simple to assess
You want to know what it's like to fly but you sit down nonetheless
You can know how the story ends but you can't know where it goes
You feel it rubbing against your skin when you think you're in control

Holding tight 'til you're sore
Fading as you awake
Though you've been here before
This time's harder to take

I can tell that you want to say you are scared out of your mind
It takes your finger between its teeth but it swears that it won't bite
I'll keep reading between the lines while you're slowly passing through
Desire reflected inside your eyes but your heart obstructs the view

Holding tight 'til you're sore
Fading as you awake
Though you've been here before
This time's harder to take

I wish I could help you out
But you've got to save yourself
Yeah I wish I could help you out
Learn how to fight for yourself

I can tell you want to say you're scared out of your mind
Your finger placed between its teeth but swears that it won't bite
Yeah

I wish I could help you out
But you've got to save yourself
Yeah I wish I could help you out
Learn how to fight for yourself
