You Know The Answer

Verse 1

You've been digging in the dirt for a golden key

Hoping that the lock will open up to fantasy

Walking down the hallway with your eyes held tight

Waiting for someone to come and turn on the light

Counting up the hours that you gave away

Saving all your breath for what you couldn't say

Pre-Chorus

The floor is getting cold beneath your bare feet

Listening to the rhythm of a broken heart beat

You're asking all the shadows what you ought to do

When everybody in the room is watching you

Chorus

The door is just a mirror and the frame is made of bone

You knew the answer before you left your home

Stop turning round and round looking for a sign

You're running out of excuses, running out of time

Yeah, you know the answer

You've known it all along

Verse 2

Whispers in the corner try to play it cool

Treating every promise like a golden rule

Bleeding out the ink onto a paper page

Trapped inside a riddle on a painted stage

You keep asking questions that you know too well

Buying up the stories that they try to sell

Pre-Chorus

The floor is getting cold beneath your bare feet

Listening to the rhythm of a broken heart beat

You're asking all the shadows what you ought to do

When everybody in the room is watching you

Chorus

The door is just a mirror and the frame is made of bone

You knew the answer before you left your home

Stop turning round and round looking for a sign

You're running out of excuses, running out of time

Yeah, you know the answer

You've known it all along

Bridge

Metals clicking in the dark

Waiting for a single spark

No more hiding behind the screen

No more asking what it ought to mean

Look right at the glass and break it through

The only one holding the key is you

Chorus

The door is just a mirror and the frame is made of bone

You knew the answer before you left your home

Stop turning round and round looking for a sign

You're running out of excuses, running out of time

Yeah, you know the answer

You've known it all along

Outro

You know the answer...

Stop asking.
