Sewn up and caught up in everything you are
Just stand there and smile cause you know that's enough to make it worse
Distracted enough to miss the point but still be concerned,
while everything I wanted slips right through my fingers
They don't have to say I'm missing out again
There's a bigger picture but my frames hold 8x10's
They don't have to say I'm losing touch again
Could explain it but they still wont understand
Stitches torn, another dirty mess
Don't turn around now, cause you know that's enough to make it worse
Held up by my own inhibitions, all pathetically fictitious,
at my best or worst, the lines always blur
(At my best or worst, what's the difference?)
I'm selfish - you're selfless
Say it again you know I love to hear it
I've been far gone for so long
Another breakdown I wont even feel it
I just don't want to take it if I'll have to give it back
