You must retreat now   I just can't talk anymore   Your words make me empty inside   There's nothin' left of you      Time seems to change   The thoughts I have for you   Now I'm so alive but you seem to be   Drownin' every minute      But that's life   I say it's alright      I can't be your answer and   I don't want to follow you   Into your cloud      And I   I am tired of being the one   To live and learn from your mistakes   I'm just so sick of my mind      It sees us like a light   Shinin' bright   In the middle   Oh, can't you see us smiling now?      And I say that's life   You say it's alright      I can't be your answer and   I don't want to follow you   Into your cloud      I can't stand out and say   I can't be your answer and   I don't want to follow you   Into your cloud      Please open your eyes   See where you sleep tonight   I hope you never come at home   But your bound to live bound to die in it      And you say that's life   I say, I'll still be here      I can't be your answer and   (I can't be)   I don't want to follow you   Into your cloud   Your clouds      And I can't be your answer   (I can't be your answer)   I can't follow you down   (I can't follow you)   Into your cloud
