Silverstein
The Continual Condition
[Intro]
A city drenching me in sin
Atop these buildings we’re both sinking
As we swim in our continual condition
[Verse 1]
You found a way inside my head and left me hanging by a thread
Gutted out, replaying every line you said and thinking
Why can’t I just forget it and why can’t I live without you
I wish I held my ground or I could just go back and disappear from you
[Chorus]
I let you in you stole a piece of me
And now I can’t take, I can't take it
I can't take it back from you again
You carved my body from the inside out
Never hesitated, hesitated
Left me on the boulevard here to bleed
[Verse 2]
Your eyes had pureness cutting through
You had me breaking my own rules, assuring me it’s okay
This is different, you know we’re different
I’m such a mess I’ve tried and tried to unlearn your spell
Uncross the line maintain my confidence outside
But this pain it won’t escape me
[Chorus]
I let you in you stole a piece of me
And now I can’t take, I can't take it
I can't take it back from you again
You carved my body from the inside out
Never hesitated, hesitated
Left me on the boulevard here to bleed
[Bridge]
A city drenching me in sin
Below these buildings I’m still sinking
As I swim in my continual condition
I’m off the beaten path, smashing every light I pass
I’m so far away, and the darkness makes me need you
[Chorus]
I let you in you stole a piece of me
And now I can’t take, I can't take it
I can't take it back from you again
You carved my body from the inside out
Never hesitated, hesitated
Left me on the boulevard here to bleed
[Outro]
You left me here to bleed
