Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, ooh, hey
[Verse 2]
It's a long way down
I keep backing away from the edge
And it's a slow burnout
Like the fires that rage in my head
[Verse 3]
And it's a slow cry out
When you've got so many tears you could die
And it's a long time to wait
When you're taking my tears away
[Verse 4]
My body's cold and time is frozen
All these feelings have poisoned my soul
And in silence, no, I can't stand it
Please break these chains, in hell I can
[Verse 5]
This hideaway
You're my one way out
I don't know how I'm gonna take it
I've tried to change
It's a long way down
And I know I can make it
[Verse 6]
It's a slow burnout
Like the fires that burn in my soul
It's a cold, dry town
When I got nowhere to go
[Verse 7]
My body's cold and time is frozen
All these feelings have poisoned my soul
And in silence, no, I can't stand it
Please break these chains, in hell I can
[Verse 8]
Hideaway
You're my one way out
I don't know how I'm gonna take it
I've tried to change
It's a long way down
But I feel I can make it
[Verse 9]
But hideaway
You're my one way out
But my tears won't save me now
Save me now
[Verse 10]
I can't stand it
All this loneliness
I feel I can't do this alone
Need someone to
Remind my feelings
That I've fallen down
By the door, ooh, ooh
[Verse 11]
I can't hideaway
You're my one way out
And I know I've gotta take it
I've tried to change
It's a long way down
But I feel I can make it
[Verse 12]
(Hideaway)
You're my one way out
And I know I can make it
(Hideaway)
It's a long way down
But my tears won't save me now
[Verse 13]
It's a long way down
I keep backing away from the edge
And it's a slow burnout
Like the fires that rage in my head
