[Interlude]    [Verse 2] Singin’ to you in the back of my car The lights flash red and the door’s ajar I could tell you the truth but the truth is much worse So I’ll tell you a lie and you’ll never be hurt And the closest I’ve come to the feeling of fine Is the joy that I feel from your hands on my side Because they poke right through your sweater And rip the fabric that holds my delusions together [Chorus] And the antidote for all the things That tear us up from seam to seam Is the space between our eyes I never would have been here otherwise And I suppose that with our broken wings We’ll have to learn to use our feet And maybe we will find a reason for our lives Well I guess we’ll have to try won’t we? [Interlude] [Bridge] We’ll have to try won’t we?   You should just let this go but I can’t tell you so No I can’t and I won’t no I can’t and I won’t You should just let this go but I can’t tell you so No I can’t and I won’t no I can’t and I won’t [Chorus] And the antidote for all the things That tear us up from seam to seam Is the space between our eyes I never would have been here otherwise And I suppose that with our broken wings We’ll have to learn to use our feet And maybe we will find a reason for our lives Well I guess we’ll have to try won’t we?
