Wasting all of your time Fabricate peace of mind Inconsistency drips from my fingertips As I reach for your hand Lose my shape in the haze Numb in the worst kind of way Live to return your gaze, it's alright You don't have to hold up the weight Taking steps in the dark Tell me how much it hurts Taking steps in the dark Tell me how much it hurts Had I known the price of this Would I still be this way? Splinter dug beneath your nails Holding tight through the pain Disillusioned with my presence Despondency's all you convey You know it best Love shouldn't be the only reason you'd stay Taking steps in the dark Tell me how much it hurts Taking steps in the dark Tell me how much it hurts
