Hop to Another SongI’m a crack in the pavement, I’m a slipknot,
I’m afraid that my fortress… is a glass box.
I should know what I’m playin’… but I forgot,
felt good for a day… but that stopped.
And I once saw clearly… but it’s bloodshot,
and I want you so badly… but I close off.
Like I thought we’d get married… but I guess not,
now you can watch… me hit the wall.
Hit the wall, I just hit the wall,
I’m not a problem you can solve.
Weighin’ the cost, impossible,
I hit the wall, I hit the wall.
I try to be silent… but I get caught,
a room full of doctors and an inkblot.
I’m drawn into headlights, have a blind spot,
pull over and wait… for too long.
I wanna be stable… but I do cave,
I lose when I’m able… I downgrade.
I barely deserve it… if you do stay,
I wish you would… anyway.
But I hit thе wall, I just hit the wall,
I’m not a problem you can solve.
Wеighin’ the cost, impossible,
I hit the wall, I hit the wall.
“A Case of You” playin’ in the hallway,
these expectations that I downplay.
I’m numb ’til I’m achin’ for the sharp pain,
watch my faith ricochet.
Funny… ain’t it? Flashbacks of my life,
what a waste oh, what a shame at night.
Face to face with every girl that I
tried… to play… mm.
Sooner or later… you’ll find out,
I live in a pattern of breakdowns.
You’ll bend to my silence, it’s so loud
and then you’ll lose me… to the crowd.
Hit the wall, I just hit the wall, (I)
I’m not a problem you can solve. (I)
Hit the wall, I just, (I-I)
I just… oh.
