lyrics

It fits like a glove
That’s cold on the inside
You can’t switch it off,
But you don’t know how to feel right
The phone’s out of sync
It rattled in your ear
Too much time to think
Here comes the fear

This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert
This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert

It wears like a smile
That cracks on the outside
If you could just put it down
To know what it feels like
To be out on a limb
Alone and disconnected
Ready to begin
To try to dissect this

This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert
This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert

On and on it goes
Your world keeps spinning
Out of control
And your grip is slipping
As you try to take hold
Of all that you’re missing
Just stop

It cuts like a knife
Right to the bone
You can’t shrug it off
But you don’t wanna let it show
It builds and it builds
Til it’s all that you know
Grinds you down
Leaves you old

This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert
This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert

On and on it goes
Your world keeps spinning
Out of control
And your grip is slipping

This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert
This is the way we work, we hurt
We stop only to revert, divert
