Jump Cut

Can't seem to get away from it Lingers like a mist I tend to blame myself for it Led us all to this I never said a word to her She could read my face She knew I couldn't hide from her Mesmerizing gaze Once secrets slip from consciousness They can hold some weight I broke the bond for all of us Thought it couldn't break Jump cut Like a movie screen When the film shifts gears To another time Jump cut To another scene To another year To another life Jump cut I don't wanna see All the things I fear I have left behind Jump cut This is killing me Jump to new frontiers Jump ahead in line Oooh Fate shifted sideways suddenly That regretful night Soon after, no one trusted me Got into a fight Ol' Willy started boxing me Taking out his grief Felt nothing, lost inside of things He had better reach When it was said and done, we all Went our separate ways Some left and turned their backs on us Everything had changed Jump cut Like a movie screen When the film shifts gears To another time Jump cut To another scene To another year To another life Jump cut II don't wanna see All the things I fear I have left behind Jump cut This is killing me Jump to new frontiers Jump ahead in line Oooh I carry guilt inside of me For breaking up the group But they've survived in spite of me All good at what they do And as for me, I guess I lost The game some time ago And that's the price you pay, the cost Of knowing what you know So let's jump forward past these thoughts I just can't take the pain Let's edit out the rougher parts And cut to better days Oooh
