Falling Down Your Stare

I misjudged what I meant to you
But now I understand
So won't you understand
It took my lies just to see the truth
So don't throw it all away
Because of my one mistake

We have come so far
But it's got me nowhere
Can't you see me standing here?

I keep reaching out
You keep preaching doubt
This feeling of beyond repair
I can't keep reaching out
If the way you choose to see me now (see me now)
Becomes a cross I have to bear
I keep falling down your stare
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la

It's another day you say it's behind us now
But your mood's turned around
Before I can turn around
And get lost in the world
Where words are meaningless
Nothing's good enough
Until we can give our best

We have come so far
But it's got us nowhere
Can't you see I'm dyin' here?

I keep reaching out
You keep preaching doubt
This feeling of beyond repair
I can't keep reaching out
If the way you choose to see me now (see me now)
Becomes a cross I have to bear
I keep falling down your stare
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la

Well, sorry's just such a sorry state
I can't keep holdin' on
If you keep raking me through the coals
Of a past that I can't change
Cuz if I could, I would

We have come so far
But it's got me nowhere

I can't keep reaching out
If the way you choose to see me now (see me now)
Because the cross I have to bare
I keep falling down your stare
La la la la la la la la la
La la la
