Two years, too late
Let you down, call it fate
I'm a child learning
How to walk again
How could you know?
Call your bluff, let it go
I was playing charades
While the house was on fire
Tenderness and patience, my spirit wanes
From your, off-guard, distractions
It's a quiet oblivion
Crushing into violence
I'll play hide and seek
On your terms, despite my condition
I can't think straight
Yet, I have 20-20 vision
Split down the middle
You're a stranger crashing into my life
If we spent the time
Could we make it right?
I can't win, but I can lose
Or learn how to live with you
No time to pretend
You know what's true
Tenderness and patience, my spirit wanes
From your off-guard, distractions
It's a quiet oblivion
Crushing into violence
I'll play hide and seek
On your terms, despite my condition
I can't think straight
Yet, I have 20-20 vision
