Lyrics:
Cure this affliction that burns a hole in me
I need to get myself up again
Is this just friction in a bleak reality?
It may be time for drastic measures, but am I ready to be saved?

I know the plot of this story - reaching out and coming up empty
I'm told that patience is a virtue, but my time is nearing curfew
Cut the cord, and break away
You and I both know it's all worth reaching for.

No motivation - I beg for stronger will
This all-or-nothing thinking is doing me in.
But in an empty shell, there's nothing left to kill.
Inject some peace of mind so that I can learn to live.

I know the plot of this story - reaching out and coming up empty
I'm told that patience is a virtue, but my time is nearing curfew
Cut the cord, and break away
You and I both know it's all worth reaching for.

I see fear surrounding you - it's surrounding all you know.
Inside out and all alone, there is nothing left to do but move.

Nothing left to do but move.

I know the plot of this story - reaching out and coming up empty
I'm told that patience is a virtue, but my time is nearing curfew
Cut the cord, and break away
You and I both know it's all worth reaching for.

Cut the cord and break away -
you and I both know it's all worth reaching for.
