To the ends of the world I'm ready to go
There's too much to see and too much to do you know
Coast to the coast it's hard to believe
Every tomorrow deserves another apology

Reading you loud, I'm reading you clear
It's one or the other, I'm here just to let you down
Reading your mind, I'm listening clear
The weight of the world is starting to get you down

Come twist my arms 'til my veins start to blow
I'm asking aloud, cos this is my life salvation
I'm told it gets easier, what's that sound?

Why (tell me why) you should be keeping all these lies (you should be keeping all these lies)
Tell me why, tell me why (tell me why, tell me why) you should be keeping this inside (you should be keeping this inside)

Reading you loud, I'm reading you clear
I'm tied to the past and I need to give in
Reading your mind I'm listening clear
Times ticking over and you've had the best of me

Come twist my arms 'til my veins start to blow
I'm asking aloud, cos this is my life salvation
I'm told it gets easier, what's that sound?

Why (tell me why) you should be keeping all these lies (you should be keeping all these lies)
Tell me why, tell me why (tell me why, tell me why) you should be keeping this inside (you should be keeping this inside)

So come twist my arms 'til my veins start to blow
I'm asking aloud, cos this is my life salvation
I'm told it gets easier, what's that sound?

Tell me why, tell me why (tell me why, tell me why) you should be keeping all these lies (you should be keeping all these lies)
