Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Scar cracks open, the walls fallin' through the floor
Just as well to keep it, a guessin' game in store
You're with me now, will be again
All other points in between
[Verse 2]
And the cruel, cruel mornings
Turned the days to swim or sink
If livin' right is easy, what goes wrong
You're causin' it to drown
Didn't wanna turn that way
You're causin' it to drown
Doesn't make a difference now
You're causin' it to drown
Silence knows, can't drown a heart
[Verse 3]
Happenstance is fallin' through the cracks in each day
Too close now to change it, fool's gold is lighter anyway
When in doubt, move on, no need to sort it out
You're with me now, will be again
All other points in between
[Verse 4]
And I want to find the right side of you
Livin' right is easy, what goes wrong
You're causin' it to drown
Didn't wanna turn that way
You're causin' it to drown
It doesn't make a difference now
You're causin' it to drown
Silence knows, can't drown a heart
[Verse 5]
When in doubt, move on, no need to sort it out
You're with me now, will be again
All other points in between
[Verse 6]
And I want to find the right side of you
If livin' right is easy, what goes wrong
You're causin' it to drown
Didn't wanna turn that way
You're causin' it to drown
It doesn't make a difference now
You're causin' it to drown
Silence knows, can't drown a heart
