You can draw a line under what has happened, But it's still gonna be there on the page. And you can clean the blood away, But you'll still always see it there. You can cry for nights on end, But you're still gonna have tears left. You can shout and you can scream, But you'll still have to sit and watch. You can say you're giving up, But you're still going to have to do it. You can fall onto the ground, But people will still wait for you to get up. So you can do whatever you want, But there's still going to be things you have to do. I guess some of us just have to take the long route.
