Resuscitate
by: MugshotSo now your back with a new view
Perspectives change
Yeah a new appreciation
For everything we were
And we were so good, but we were so bad
If you dont care then whats got you so sad?
If you dont care than why's it hurt so bad?
Now you cant wait to resusitate
And if only your story made sense
I'd follow along
And you could jump straight off this cliff
And I'd follow along
I've heard enough so just listen
And dry those eyes cause they glisten
And distract me from all thats gone on here
Yeah it was so dumb, lets try to move on
Cause if your with me, you got me 'til the end
And if you got me then you always have a friend
So now i cant wait to resusitate
And if only your story made sense
I'd follow along
And you could jump straight off this cliff
And I'dd follow along
I gave you your ten second chance
I should have known we'd fall
Fall fall fall fall
I should have know better
I shoulda ran but i cant even feel my legs around you
I'm frozen with fear of the truth
