This story line inside my head
We spun gold to straw instead
Cut your hand on a spinning wheel
This shield is getting heavy
And I work too much
And I try too hard
To loose
Play it safe it you say
I can't go through this alone
This price we carry on our back
It's just a balancing act
Chorus:
Do you think I try
To leave without you by my side
No stone walls too steep
To keep this locked inside
Call me crazy
This life is just too much for me
Put your white glove in my hand
I'm trying to be your man
Is this all I can take
To mend these rules you break
I will be the floodgate that sets you free
