Til it only le

         
ft a hole deep

      
 inside

[Verse 2]
        
I used to lie 

 
awake
            
Hoping there's

           
 salvation in 


the skies
            
Well they say 

              
there's someon

  
e up there
            
Some see love 

             
and some say u


nfair

er sounds
           
And the critic

[Chorus]
        
Now I'm walkin

g on a road
