How many tries does it take before you feel happy again? How many lies does it take until you realize you’re in pain? 'cause I hear your cries I hear your sighs Flowers are drying but it’s still July What lullaby did you want to fall asleep to? I’ll sing it a million times Tell me that you feel alright tonight Hold me 'til you feel my love pass down your spine I see all the fear in your eyes Leaving everything behind You say you don’t mind But tears glaze your eyes And you cry How many ties did you have to cut off to feel free again? 'cause you felt the world was never on your side You saw everything in black and white But you were a painter You were a dreamer But since then your skin grew thicker and thicker 'til you couldn’t feel anything Aren’t you sick of everything? Tell me that you feel alright tonight Hold me 'til you feel my love pass down your spine I see all the fear in your eyes Leaving everything behind You say you don’t mind But tears glaze your eyes And you cry How many tries does it take before you feel happy again
