Symbion Project Lyrics
"Elastic Words"

Your elastic words snap back
The stinging pierces deep and fills me with your pain
No antidote can save me from the fact
That thoughts of sympathy I cannot entertain

Every move I make just tightens up your grip
Your damaged psyche cannot be undone
Every move I make just tightens up your grip
Why don't you let me slip away from you?

This push and pull, it frightens me
Bound by promises I know I cannot keep
This push and pull confuses me
Take advantage while my tired eyes
My tired eyes are full of sleep

You thought that I could save you from yourself
Some sort of shield, some kind of shining knight
Hidden thoughts are hazards to your health
I will not fan the flames that passion would ignite

Every move I make just tightens up your grip
Your skewed perspective cannot be undone
Every move I make just tightens up your grip
Why don't you let me slip away from you?
