I'll Never Tread Lightly Again
She stood on the beach in the full moon
Gently lifted the rope from my neck
I stepped down to the sand
She took hold of my hand
I was drunk on a taste of disaster
Wondering what this weightlessness meant
Brushed the sand from my feet
I had felt so complete
Now I'll never tread lightly again
The night tumbled down like a landslide
The feeling fell on me like rain
Bloodshot eyes stripped me bare
Of a reason to care
And you cried in my arms till the sun rose
As I gathered your head to my chest
But the tears were too sharp
They punctured my heart
And I'll never tread lightly again
I had to fall to the floor just to find out my feet
And I'd learn how to dance if you'd only stop changing the beat
I recall the recoil
I can bury what's dead
But I'd rather go hungry than lie in that bed
And I'll never tread lightly again
Now restraint is the essence of romance
So I never want to see you again
I can't salvage a shred of the words that we said
And I'll never tread lightly again
Gently lifted the rope from my neck
I stepped down to the sand
She took hold of my hand
I was drunk on a taste of disaster
Wondering what this weightlessness meant
Brushed the sand from my feet
I had felt so complete
Now I'll never tread lightly again
The night tumbled down like a landslide
The feeling fell on me like rain
Bloodshot eyes stripped me bare
Of a reason to care
And you cried in my arms till the sun rose
As I gathered your head to my chest
But the tears were too sharp
They punctured my heart
And I'll never tread lightly again
I had to fall to the floor just to find out my feet
And I'd learn how to dance if you'd only stop changing the beat
I recall the recoil
I can bury what's dead
But I'd rather go hungry than lie in that bed
And I'll never tread lightly again
Now restraint is the essence of romance
So I never want to see you again
I can't salvage a shred of the words that we said
And I'll never tread lightly again
