Lyrics

What kind of breeze
Do you think you are?
You bend me 'til I break
What kind of dance
Did you drag me to?
Like a Baptist I moan and shake
If I should fall, fall off the shelf
I'm only trying to be true to myself
To be true
I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
Well, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
I thought I could fake forever, but I was wrong
I thought I could wait forever, I thought I was strong
Can't put on the brake forever, forever's too long
You shake me 'til I don't know right from wrong
Right from wrong
What kind of house
Are you building for me?
The sand shifts under my feet
What kind of pill
Did you slip in my tea?
The bitter tastes so sweet
If I should fall, fall off the shelf
I'm only trying to be true to myself
To be true
I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
Well, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
I thought I could fake forever, but I was wrong
I thought I could wait forever, I thought I was strong
Can't put on the brake forever, forever's too long
You shake me 'til I don't know right from wrong
From wrong
Right from wrong
Right from wrong
