Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And now you say you're leaving town
Tell your family that you'll miss them
Certain things are never found
In the shadows of your wishes
And the feelings that you found
That you overlook 'em one more time
[Verse 2]
Like a needle in your spine
When the choices slowly hits them
You were lonely, it was fine
And nobody else would listen
Hope that something that you find
You don't overlook it one more time
[Chorus]
There is something in your eyes again
You leave it all behind
Got the feeling there is something you can't find
There are certain things you can't escape
The conversations can't relate
The burdens that you've carried over time
And there's a spirit in your body and a voice that's telling you
You can't escape the choices that you choose
No, you can't escape the choices that you choose
[Verse 3]
What is real? What is fake? What is time? Are we drifting?
What is keeping you awake? Won't you tell me what is missing?
Why is everything you say like somebody put a spell on you?
[Verse 4]
There's a rhythm to your heart that was keeping you in time
There's a spirit in your body on a never-ending line
It might give, and it might take
But nobody else can take from you
[Chorus]
There is something in your eyes again
You leave it all behind
Got the feeling there is something you can't find
And there are certain things you can't escape
The conversations can't relate
The burdens that you've carried over time
There's a spirit in your body like a voice that's telling you
When you can't escape the choices that you choose
When You can't escape the choices that you choose
[Bridge]
After all these things, all my dreams just ain't enough
Somebody say you love me, tell me on the telephone
Having trouble keeping up
And everybody's leaving town
Pay attention, changing channels, tell me, why it's not enough?
[Verse 5]
Pay attention to the signs, it's a reflection of you
There's a child in the corner of the room
Standing there, you hope to make your mother proud somehow
[Chorus]
There is something in your eyes again
So leave it all behind
Like the feeling there is something you can't find
It was there between the anguish and the faces and your mind
But here's a light that will shine upon your truth
There are certain things you can't escape
The conversations can't relate
The burdens that you've carried over time
And there's a spirit in your body like a voice that's telling you
But you can't escape the choices that you choose
No, you can't escape the choices that you choose
[Outro]
When you can't escape the choices
