And just because I never told you the truth
And without dressing it up so it looks real good
Cause different expressions make for different lives
I know I've lied all the time

Well don't you know that I
Given time will find a way
Can't you see these words
Don't mean anything to me

There's only one chance to take
Let's look before we take it
There's only one change to make
We'll bend before we break

And just before you say what you're gonna say
Just try expressing yourself in a different way
You just can't change what you can't understand
Cause I know this hasn't worked out quite like we planned

There's only one chance to take
Let's look before we take it
There's only one change to make
We'll bend before we break

And from my island I can't see the shore anymore
And from my island I can't see the shore anymore
And from my island I can't see the shore anymore
And from my island I can't see the shore anymore
