lyrics

Strike a blow and fade away, forget about the choices taken away
We run in circles to get out of the way, jumping at the chance to run away
I won't tell a secret, I won't say a word

I became an animal, taken in by empty words
I became a tired thought, through this dizzy world
Every step I mistook never caused alarm
You said I was turned away from your open arms

Strike a blow and fade away, forget about the choices taken away
We run in circles to get out of the way, jumping at the chance to run away
I won't tell a secret, I won't say a word

I became an innocent victimless crime
I became a disbeliever after all this time
Every chance I turned around never showed a truth
You said I was turned away and no one heard the news

They always say it's in my mind
I know for sure I'm right this time
You've felt the chills on your spine
I've always loved this pain of mine

Strike a blow and fade away, forget about the choices taken away
We run in circles to get out of the way, jumping at the chance to run away
I won't tell a secret, I won't say a word
