X 2
Well this stone that I have swallowed
isn't going down so well,
and this road that I have followed
is leading me to hell.
You said it didn't matter
but I think you're a liar.
Is this one of you talents
that stokes the very fire.
It burns you.
Chorus.
Each time you try to live,
and the Earth will turn below you,
the pressure is building and something has to give.
X 2
And when I build you a steeple
you say it's incomplete.
Cause you need the whole cathedral
to satisfy your needs.
You're like a paper aeroplane
that never seems to land.
Flying blind through anything,
straight into the hand that chokes you.
Chorus.
Something has to give
Something has to give
Something has to give
