I'm watching you walk
 
 As you walk that distant way
 
 Take that thing away from me
 
 Take away most everything
 
 I couldn't say I'd blame you
 
 You should never look in back
 
 You wouldn't be to blame
 
 If you couldn't take it back
 
  
  Hours slipping by as you watch
 
 The worlds collide
 
 Now you're nothing more
 
 Than another passerby
 
 The dark it turns to light
 
 In a distant flash of night
 
 Rolling with the tide I confide
 
 The act we wear it thin again
  
 
 If affection holds you back
 
 Then what is left to hold
 
 If I could find the answer to that
 
 Question then I'd know
 
 The thoughts that
 
 Clutter up your mind
 
 And leave me feeling drained
 
 And walking pacing up the walls
 
 Across the floor again
  
 
 All the things I haven't seen
 
 Once the final curtain has been raised
 
 The act we act is wearing thin
 
 The act we act we under my skin
 
 The words the words we said goodbye
 
 The words left choking in my mind
 
 The act we act is wearing thin
 
 I think we wear it out again
  
 
 Another big explosion
 
 Leaving you hoping
 
 That something that once
 
 Held you down
 
 Could leave you feeling
 
 On the ground
  
 
 The confusion that persists
 
 Decisions that you guessed
 
 The one to stay and watch this
 
 The one you might have missed
  
 
 All the things I haven't seen
 
 Once the final curtain has been raised
 
 The act we act is wearing thin
 
 The act we act we under my skin
 
 The words the words we said goodbye
 
 The words left choking in my mind
 
 The act we act is wearing thin
 
 I think we wear it out again
 
 The act we act we under my skin
 
 The act we act we under my
  
 
 Forming a conclusion
 
 And you're left standing
