lyrics

trying to make some sense of this
trying to find the bright side here
trying to wrap my brain around it, to stop falling to the ground and
trying to get back up and over my fear
trying to make some sense of this
how can this have come to pass?
there oughta be a rule against it, it's just so goddamned offensive,
it makes me want to kick somebody's ass,

‘cause it’s a mistake, this can’t be right
we were all right as rain last night
we were on solid ground and now we’ve stepped into thin air
and I keep pretending life is fair.

trying to make some sense of this
waiting for the other shoe to drop
waiting for some resolution, or a stay of execution
or a chance to try it once more from the top
trying to make some sense of this
wanna go back to the way things were
can't stop railing against the system, grind my teeth and pound my fist, I’m asking
why can't it be me instead of her?

‘cause it’s a mistake, this can’t be right
we were all right as rain last night
we were on solid ground now we’ve stepped into thin air
and I keep pretending
that
it’s a mistake, this can’t be right
we were all right as rain last night
we were on solid ground now we’ve stepped into thin air
and I keep pretending
life is fair.
