Words are poison in my mouth
Halls look empty, full of doubt
A love in winter, homestead sake
Colors fading, pictures plain

And I can't walk away
'Cause everything weighs me down
And any time I turn around
I let through every silent sound
I tried to break the chains
But you left me tied and bound
And I can't walk away
I just keep on losing ground

Wilting flowers bend and break
Every thought is of my mistakes
Hands are shaking in the cold
Deep regrets, the truth untold

And I can't walk away
'Cause everything weighs me down
And any time I turn around
I let through every silent sound
I tried to break the chains
But you left me tied and bound

I followed every round
Just chasing after every
Place you've been
There's no way I can ever trip again
The story's way too big for me to end

And I can't walk away
'Cause everything weighs me down
And any time I turn around
I let through every silent sound

And I can't walk away
'Cause everything weighs me down
And any time I turn around
I let through every silent sound

You're pulling all the weight
And I keep on losing ground
I tried to break the chains
But you left me tied and bound
And I can't walk away
I just keep on losing ground
