Pale Beneath The Tan (Squeeze)

Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze!

Squeeze my arms a little tighter

Let me know I'm still alive

Cause you're the only one here keeping both my eyes

open tonight

And I know that we got problems

Who are they to criticize

If I tell you all my secrets would you tell me all your

lies

And when I stop writing her letters

I want her to know that it's because

I have someone that makes me feel the same exact way

that she does

And I will not deny the privilege to someone else who

wants my love

I have stitched a mask of confidence and I wear it like

a glove

And a man that knows what he's talking, spoke to me

today

He said that no ones going to listen until you mean

every word you say

So if you can't find the feeling, you better learn to

lie

And if you know we're gonna fail, then there's no point

to even try

No point to try, no point try, no point to try

I don't get it for real, this is blowing my mind

We keep saying we're unhappy and they keep saying that

we're fine

I guess pain will be the only thing I ever get to bring

But I will send it through the air like a loosely

gripped baseball bat swing

All I ever wanted was something different, maybe by

another name

We could set ourselves on fire, there is cleansing in

the flame

So keep clapping and dancing

Let them know you're still alive and if you're tired of

giving up

At least make them think that you surived

So keep laughing, its not funny but at least you don't

have to cry

When you wake up in the morning and you know you're

still alive

You're still alive, you know you're still alive

You're still alive, you know you're still alive

Until we break down, til we shut down

Until the weight of our lifeless bodies hit the ground

Until we break down, til we shut down

Until the weight of our lifeless bodies hit the ground

Until we break down, til we shut down

Until the weight of our lifeless bodies hit the ground

And a man that knows what he's talking, spoke to me

today

He said that no ones going to listen until you mean

every word you say

So if you can't find the feeling, you better learn to

lie

And if you know we're gonna fail, then there's little

point to even try

Little point to try
