LYRICS

Stronger than brothers
There for each other
Confessing our secrets
We'd never share with another

A one-way street
Your finger pointed at me
Cornered with nowhere else to go
I tried to break free

There’s nothing left to do
Watch me get away from you

Tear me down for being real
Drive the nails in no matter how it makes me feel
Swallow me whole, I’ll swallow my pride
But I’ll never give in ‘til the day I die

Did time leave us
Twisted and smothered
Transgression blocked
All progression

You say you
Were there for me
Looking back
It’s not you I see

There’s nothing left to do
Watch me get away from you

Tear me down for being real
Drive the nails in no matter how it makes me feel
Swallow me whole, I’ll swallow my pride
But I’ll never give in ‘til the day I die

Chew me up and spit me out
Set me straight beyond any trace of doubt
Spew your hate; I’ll get my due
God willing, I’ll keep on loving you

Look ahead, I hope there'll be
Someone to bring you to your knees
No reason to ask what might have been
Nothing left but to forgive and forget

Tear me down for being real
Drive the nails in no matter how it makes me feel
Swallow me whole, I’ll swallow my pride
But I’ll never give in ‘til the day I die

Chew me up and spit me out
Set me straight beyond any trace of doubt
Spew your hate; I’ll get my due
God willing, I’ll keep on loving you
