I keep saying to myself it's all okay
I keep saying to myself you're just a heartbeat and a breath away
I keep saying to myself there's got to be another way
Well okay
Just keep telling yourself that
Cause it won't just go away

I keep saying to myself I've seen this place
Not a moment passes by that I don't get carried away
I keep saying to myself they'll all regret those hateful things they say
Well okay
Keep telling yourself that

We've got a long way to go
It won't just go away
We've got a long way to go
Every step backwards we take
Wait and see
You and me
These paper wings keep burning
We've got a long way to go
And I fear that this is just the beginning
Yeah, it's just the beginning

Like a razor blade that slices through the skin
Like a song that brings you to your knees
Time and time and time again
There's nothing left to talk about
There's nothing left to say
Well okay
Just keep telling yourself it will all just go away!

We've got a long way to go
It won't just go away
We've got a long way to go
Every step backwards we take
Wait and see
You and me
These paper wings keep burning
We've got a long way to go
And I fear that this is just the beginning

I know, I'm never looking back, and I won't let go
As times grow strange, it's no surprise it's getting old
Cuz I'm in too deep, and it's sinking sand
It's a landslide back to the start again
But I'm never going back
Never going back no
Never going back again

I keep saying to myself it's all okay
I keep saying to myself it's just a heartbeat and a breath away
I keep saying to myself there's got to be another way
Well okay
Keep telling yourself that

We've got a long way to go
It won't just go away
We've got a long way to go
Every step backwards we take
Wait and see
You and me
These paper wings keep burning
We've got a long way to go
And I fear that this is just the beginning
Just the beginning
Just the beginning
Yeah
