Sad Divide

An avalanche of pain

It is confounding

Caught in a landslide

Sliding to you

A natural disaster

This is what you are

I'm caught in a landslide

I'm caught up in you

It isn't that, it's not a matter of fact

Cause there are nuances and subtleties

And all things like that

And as you raise your head above the parapet

You say to me you are the saviour, I'm the marionette

You see, I've turned a corner and I've turned a page

I've been a victim of myself as well as everyone else

And you can draw a dotted line around my old silhouette

And in return, I'll sing You Oughta Know' by A. Morrisette

An avalanche of pain

It is confounding

Caught in a landslide

Sliding to you

A natural disaster

This is what you are

I'm caught in a landslide

I'm caught up in you

This sad divide you see in front of you

You see the end, I see a breakthrough

This sad divide you see in front of you

You see the broken, I see brand new

I'm not exaggerating, I'm not a liar

You said I needed to be exorcised

Because I was a pariah

You think of me as your possession to keep

But you are not my puppeteer

And you don't own any part of me

Figure of eight you draw again and again

Defile the bare wood of the table of this passenger train

For all infinity, respectfully no

Cause I am fighting for my liberty

So watch me get up and go

An avalanche of pain

It is confounding

Caught in a landslide

Sliding to you

A natural disaster

This is what you are

I'm caught in a landslide

I'm caught up in you

This sad divide you see in front of you

You see the end, I see a breakthrough

This sad divide you see in front of you

You see the broken, I see brand new
