My simple words don't explain
All the cards in this game
All the debts left unpaid
So I will harden my heart
And crawl back in

And so begin my escape
From the arms of my fate
Where the darkness awaits
But like a dog, ashamed
I crawl back in

And today, oh today
Whether sun, whether rain
We are one and the same
In hope and pain
I crawl back in

And so shall it ever be
And my hopes return to dreams
And my dreams return to dirt
Beneath my nails
As I crawl back in
