I know I'm not a lost 'cause yet I know I've got a ways still to go They say it's peaceful in the dark I'm at my worst, my lowest mark No one around to talk me down Great pretender, who is who Try to turn your words too soon I'll let you in quite easily But if you listen carefully I'm only as sure as I seem Linking hands arm in arm Here we are with our little house of cards Just relying on chance to lay them right Tell me through all the years Did the meaning become the only goal Linking hands arm in arm and multiply We can't back, we can't back we can't back, we can't back out We can't back, we can't back we can't back, we can't back out It takes some guts to stick it out Trying hard to not give way There's a cloud so black it's lost Behind the glass, reflected off And so I wait for a break Linking hands arm in arm Here we are with our little house of cards Just relying on chance to lay them right Tell me through all the years Did the meaning become the only goal Linking hands arm in arm and multiply We can't back, we can't back we can't back, we can't back out We can't back, we can't back we can't back, we can't back out
