Lyric No Way Out
saw a group of people forming
round a figure lying down
and someone runs to make a phone call
and the man kneels on the ground
the man kneels on the ground
there s a tightening in my chest
i know that I m drawn in
oh god let it not be – you
don t leave us
don t leave like this
don t leave me here again
i m not quitting on you
no one else
you re not quitting on us
no running out
the colour in your shirt is darkening,
against the paleness of your skin
i remember how you held the goldfish
swimming around in a plastic bag
swimming around in a plastic bag
you held it up so high
in the bright lights of the fair
it slipped and fell
we looked everywhere
don t leave us (your eyes are bright, your blood is warm)
don t leave like this (your heart is strong, you re holding on)
don t leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
i m not quitting on you
there s no one else
you re not quitting on us
there s no way out
no way out
don t leave us
don t leave like this
don t leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
i m not quitting on you
there s no one else
you re not quitting on us
no running away – no way out
round a figure lying down
and someone runs to make a phone call
and the man kneels on the ground
the man kneels on the ground
there s a tightening in my chest
i know that I m drawn in
oh god let it not be – you
don t leave us
don t leave like this
don t leave me here again
i m not quitting on you
no one else
you re not quitting on us
no running out
the colour in your shirt is darkening,
against the paleness of your skin
i remember how you held the goldfish
swimming around in a plastic bag
swimming around in a plastic bag
you held it up so high
in the bright lights of the fair
it slipped and fell
we looked everywhere
don t leave us (your eyes are bright, your blood is warm)
don t leave like this (your heart is strong, you re holding on)
don t leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
i m not quitting on you
there s no one else
you re not quitting on us
there s no way out
no way out
don t leave us
don t leave like this
don t leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
i m not quitting on you
there s no one else
you re not quitting on us
no running away – no way out
