Behold the cracks you stand on in the coldLocked up, we counted boarded housesOn the street where we would liveIf the earth hadn't shaken everything off of itCome to me dear, come closerSet 'em up and knock 'em overAnd then it happened like thisThe lesson I missed was when we hit it on the headSomething has got to giveSomething has got to...I will be the face you seeThat pulled itself out of the rubbleInto someone that you swore Was dead and gone, out of the rubbleI will be the face you seeThat pulled itself out of the rubbleInto someone that you swore Was dead and gone, out of the rubbleI saw the cracks spread on the floorShe said, "everybody in the doorway"And the earth, it moved in waves and wavesNever reaching shoreSongtexteI found a place on solid groundShe said, "I think it's finally over"And we walked into the aftermathStronger than beforeShaking things up but I had it just rightAll perfectly pleased to be sealed in tightYou're counting on plans that could never be changedIf it ever falls through, you could never replaceI'm counting on it but it doesn't add upDon't want to give in, don't want to give upAnd people are saying this is the end, ohI say we hit in on the headI will be the face you seeThat pulled itself out of the rubbleInto someone that you swore Was dead and gone, out of the rubbleI will be the face you seeThat pulled itself out of the rubbleInto someone that you swore Was dead and gone, out of the rubbleI saw the cracks spread on the floorShe said, "everybody in the doorway"And the earth, it moved in waves and wavesNever reaching shoreSomething has got to giveSomething has got to give Aus Songtexte Mania
