Next To Normal - I\'ve Been lyrics

rate me

Dan:<br />

Standing in this room<br />

Well I wonder what comes now.<br />

I know I have to help her<br />

But hell if I know how.<br />

<br />

And all the times that<br />

I've been told<br />

The way her illness goes<br />

The truth of it<br />

Is no one really knows<br />

<br />

And every day this act we act<br />

Gets more and more absurd... <br />

And all my fears just side inside me, <br />

Screaming to be heard... <br />

I know they won't, though<br />

Not a single word.<br />

<br />

I was here<br />

At her side<br />

When she called, <br />

When she cried.<br />

How could she<br />

Leave me on my own?<br />

<br />

Will it work?<br />

This cure?<br />

There's no way<br />

To be sure... <br />

But I'm weary to the bone.<br />

<br />

And whenever she goes flying, <br />

I keep my feet right on the ground<br />

Oh, now I need a lift<br />

And there's no one around.<br />

<br />

Dan & Gabe:<br />

Hey, oh, oh, oh<br />

Ah, ooh, ooh, ooh<br />

Ooh, ooh, no... <br />

<br />

Dan:<br />

And I've never had<br />

To face the world<br />

Without her at my side... <br />

Now I'm strolling<br />

Right beside her<br />

As the black hole opens wide... <br />

Mine is just a slower suicide.<br />

<br />

I've been here<br />

For the show, <br />

Every high, <br />

Every low, <br />

But it's the worst<br />

We've ever known... <br />

<br />

She's been hurt<br />

And how<br />

But I can't<br />

Give up now... <br />

'Cause I've never been alone... <br />

I could never be alone.
