take it back
It's hard enough to notice Harder still to react Just a stone's throw from the center of our attention We all fade to black  Save me from a villainous imagination Deliver me from my friends If I said something to make you mad I will take it back  It's hard enough to stomach But try to look away Is this a news report or a trailer for a motion picture? It all fades to gray  Save me from a villainous imagination Deliver me from my friends If I said something to make you mad I will take it back  Long lines and warning signs Think of all the lives saved by plastic knives It's naive, but make believe We will never lose if we remove our shoes  It's hard to keep your mouth shut Harder still to make noise But we can't have the perfect 20/20 hindsight That our fate enjoys  Save me from a villainous imagination Deliver me from my friends If I said something to make you mad I will take it back I will take it back
