Rush II (Climbing Out)

You can't see it
But you can feel it
Reach out
Don't burn yourself

I can see it
But I can't feel it
Reach out both hands to shield the sight

My jewelry catches the light
The sun's in my eyes
I don't want to do this anymore
I'm climbing out

You can't see it, you're in another room
Reach out
And imagine what it must feel like

'Cause I can feel it
Rushing through my bloodstream
Adrenaline or genuine acceptance

My jacket catches the breeze
Washes over me
I don't want to do this anymore
I'm climbing out

All my life in a pinball game
Get a high score from hitting the same dull ache
I fight the impulse to take it personally
When something goes wrong

When something goes wrong

A mug slipping through soapy hands, it shatters
Denim comes out of the dryer in tatters
I'll scratch an itch til I bleed, it matters
I want to heal instead

I'm climbing out

(A mug slipping through soapy hands, it shatters)
(Tried to rush it made it worse)
(Denim comes out of the dryer in tatters)
(Now I'm dumping out my purse)
(I'll scratch an itch til I bleed, it matters)
(To clean the mess, I made it worse)
(I want to heal instead)
(I made it worse)

(Denim comes out of the dryer in tatters)
(To clean the mess, I made it worse, I made it worse)
(I'll scratch an itch til I bleed, it matters)
(Tried to rush it, made it worse, now I'm dumping out my purse)
(I want to heal instead)
(To clean the mess, I made it worse, I made it, I)

Ohhhhhh
