Below the Surface

I thought I said I didn't want to talk about it
You swore you wouldn't bring it up anymore
Its not fair to open up the wound and let me bleed out on the floor
But here we are some things are better left below the surface
That's where they cannot do us harm anymore
Lets spare ourselves a little misery forget it and move on we'll fool the world

Why can't we keep pretending everything is still the same as yesterday
Whenever we go down that road it really just amounts to nothing
Sometimes it just makes sense to take the pain and try to force it all away
Locked down and bound unless we decide to turn it into something

The choice to take the strain and bury it in place
Sometimes its what it takes to face another day
Don't shed more than a single tear about it
There's no sense of thinking of the past anymore
Erase unpleasant memories instead of letting them live on to take control
Some things are better left below the surface
That's where they cannot do us harm anymore
Lets spare ourselves a little misery
Forget it and move on we'll fool them all

Why can't we keep pretending everything is still the same as yesterday
Whenever we go down that road it really just amounts to nothing
Sometimes it just makes sense to take the pain and try to force it all away
Locked down and bound unless we decide to turn it into something

Why can't we keep pretending everything is still the same as yesterday
Whenever we go down that road it really just amounts to nothing
Sometimes it just makes sense to take the pain and try to force it all away
Locked down and bound unless we decide to turn it into something

This cold and empty space is just too much to take
Sometimes you can't escape the way your heart can break
