You were always handcuffed to a milestone How you lasted so long I won't know Cancer has a way of taking victims And I have a nature to ignore So as we run further from the center I'll sit here stunned, I was the dissenter A stab to the back and a slit to the throat How do I get back into your arms? All along you knew I was just holding your hand long enough to warm my own Busy bees forget that they have stingers Selfish men forget they have a home So as we run further from the center I'll sit here stunned, I was the dissenter A stab to the back and a slit to the throat How do I get back into your arms? I hurt, what of you? I paid my price How do I get back into your arms?
