Chagrin was the steel cage that they locked you in

Behind those white picket bars they fenced you in

And so to never be embarrassed you swore to never cherish what you couldn't control

And yet you can't let go of the rock and roll

The rock and roll

You grow up and life doesn't go the way you planned

The stars align to take the music man's hand

But your readings get crossed and you get a little lost when you start to fold

And yet you can't let go of the rock and roll

The rock and roll

Still you won't trust fall into my arms

You won't stop counting all of my scars

You won't trust fall into my arms

Cuz what if I don't catch you

What if no one's waiting at all

Raised in red but now you're tangled in blue

My waves of love keep falling for you

But you do what you do best and fight the tide

Why you keep running I don't know why

I don't know why

You won't trust fall into my arms

You won't stop counting all of my scars

You won't trust fall into my arms

Cuz what if I don't catch you

What if no one's waiting at all

Don't listen to the sound of the voices trying to tear us apart

Don't listen to the sound of the voices trying to tear us apart

Don't listen to the sound of the voices trying to tear us apart

Don't listen to the sound of the voices trying to tear us apart

You won't trust fall into my arms

You won't stop counting all of my scars

You won't trust fall into my arms

Cuz what if I don't catch you

What if no one's waiting at all
