Pin It Down

When I stand back, I see a little clearer now When I'm not staring right at a pixelated picture When I shut it out, it still hurts the same somehow And I'm standing right where I said I would never be I can't pin it I can't pin it down I can't pin it But I think we've been here once before I think we've been here once before When you looked at me Were my defenses drawn? Was I cutting through the floor I was standing on? This cold-blooded pride in me Won't go down quietly And I'm standing right where I said I could never be I can't pin it I can't pin it down I can't pin it But I think we've been here once before Yeah, I can't pin it I can't pin it down I can't pin it But I think we've been here once before I think we've been here once before When I look into your eyes There's nowhere to hide, no edge to hold Are we so willing to compromise Every ounce of freedom for some control? Time and time again, the colors start to blend And our fury can't remember its own reason Maybe it's time that I take a good a look around At what we have learned to live with And what we can't live without The pain that we hold so dear Looks so small and vein from here When we're standing right where we said we would never be I can't pin it I can't pin it down I can't pin it But I think we've been here once before Yeah, I'll admit it I'll admit it now I'll admit it I think we've been here once before I think we've been here once before One too many times before I think we've been here once before I think we've been here once before I think we've been here once before
