Deadwood - Failsafe

Please excuse me if I don’t find

The words to make it all sincere

I need to mull this over

So please have patience with me

I’m so sick of this impending silence

This time you’ll be fine

But if you find I’m stepping on your toes

Then you’ve got to let me know

It’s time to kick out all the deadwood

And come out of the woodwork

We’ve all got our faults

But it’s not my place to say so

I’ll never be ungrateful

But you’ve got to let me go

So, make a fresh start

And mend the punctures from your heart

I never wanted you to see this side unknown to even me

I’ve fallen down and I’ve hit the ground

And I need someone to help me to my feet

Chemicals and obstacles keep on getting in the way

Of what I’m about to say

Help me perpetuate my feelings

Because they’ll never go away

They’ll only ever change

Take me away from this obsession

My heart won’t keep you in contention

It’s too little too late

Because I’ll never find the words

You’ll never get it if you don’t try

You’ll watch the world as it slips away from your eyes

You’d be a fool if you keep inside

All of the thins that you think you ought to hide

So, make a change, better make a move

And walk the world in somebody else’s shoes

Seize the day and don’t be afraid

Of what the vicious minds may say
