Lyrics for Caught

It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do To try and keep from calling you Well, can my dreams keep coming true? How can they? 'Cause when I sleep I never dream of you As if the dream of you, it sleeps too But it never slips away It just gains its strength and digs its hooks To drag me through the day And I'm caught I forget all that I've been taught I can't keep calm, I can't keep still Pulled apart against my will It's the hardest thing I've ever had to prove You turn to salt as I turned around to look at you Old friends have said, the books I've read Say it's the thing to do But it's hard to see it when you're in it 'Cause I went blind for you Then you leave my head and crawl out of bed Subconscious solipsist And for those hours deep in the dark Perhaps you don't exist But I'm caught I forget all that I've been taught I can't keep calm, I can't keep still Pulled apart against my will And I was thrashing on the line Somewhere between Desperate and divine I can't keep calm, I can't keep still Persephone will have her fill And I'm caught I forget all that I've been taught I can't keep calm, I can't keep still Pulled apart against my will And I'm caught I forget all that I've been taught I can't keep calm, I can't keep still Pulled apart against my will Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
