Cracks in the Pavement

[Verse 1]
I start kicking a rock down the sidewalk
It helps, avoiding your eye contact
I'm afraid of what I'll do
If I'm alone with you

[Verse 2]
You won't admit the way that you're talking
With a lit cigarette, it's making you sick
But it feels nice to laugh
For a moment, see my breath as a mist

[Chorus]
Lead me down your path
A strange mystery hanging over me
I'm losing myself in it
But nothing is ever as it seems

[Verse 3]
I count the cracks in the pavement
To throw a wrench in it
Distracting my brain wave
Is it alright to joke, humor the thought that we're real?

[Bridge]
But nothing is ever as it seems
Until you're there lying next to me

[Chorus]
Lead me down your path
A strangе mystery hanging over me
I'm losing mysеlf in it
To dream of you lying next to me
But I know we'd be lying through our teeth
Cutting corners, making believe
If only anything was ever as it seemed

[Outro]
(If only anything was ever as it seemed)
(If only anything was ever as...)
