[Verse 1: Alan Sparhawk & Mimi Parker]
Gentle, middle, quiet, narrow
Careful, measure, tortured, stable

[Refrain: Alan Sparhawk & Mimi Parker]
It doesn’t have to end this way
But this is where we stand

[Verse 2: Alan Sparhawk & Mimi Parker]
Conscious, watching, waiting
Silence, listen, hello, blessing, treading

[Refrain: Alan Sparhawk & Mimi Parker]
It doesn’t have to end this way
But this is where we stand

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro: Mimi Parker]
Hell could be a colder place
Feel my breath slipping away
It kills me, even so I stay
I will listen to what you say
Hell could be a colder place
Feel my breath slipping away
It kills me, even so I stay
I will listen to what you say
Hell could be a colder place
Feel my breath slipping away
It kills me, even so I stay
I will listen to what you say
Hell could be a colder place
Feel my breath slipping away
It kills me, even so I stay
I will listen to what you say
