I'm playing cool and swell
But I've been through all hell
Trying to make a break, think
And then forget about it
Better if it rings out
I'm acting through it all
Making up excuses
Running from your eyes
Drowning in your side
Flooded in our blood
Underneath your water
Bound and gagged, I fight
Gotta get undone
Cause I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I just want to get out
It's closing in somehow
Pressed up against me now
Get under my skin, take
A knife and cut it out
I just want to get it out
The walls have closed somehow
Making up excuses
Running from your eyes
Drowning in your side
Flooded in our blood
Underneath your water
Bound and gagged, I fight
Gotta get undone
Cause I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I just want to get out
I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I don't want to break
I just want to get out
Turning blue and no surprise
I'm not breathing when I'm not inspired
Rep. chorus
But I've been through all hell
Trying to make a break, think
And then forget about it
Better if it rings out
I'm acting through it all
Running from your eyes
Drowning in your side
Flooded in our blood
Underneath your water
Bound and gagged, I fight
Gotta get undone
Cause I don't want to break
I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I just want to get out
Pressed up against me now
Get under my skin, take
A knife and cut it out
I just want to get it out
The walls have closed somehow
Running from your eyes
Drowning in your side
Flooded in our blood
Underneath your water
Bound and gagged, I fight
Gotta get undone
Cause I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I just want to get out
I don't want to break
I don't want to fake
I don't want to break
I just want to get out
I'm not breathing when I'm not inspired

Definately one of my favourite Gob songs off the 'Going the distance' soundtrack. Looks like a Canadian version of Road Trip maybe? I dunno, but everyone should hear this song it's awesome.
Good song, but I don't get what it's about... I like the harpsicord in it [is it harpsicord?], awesome. I guess it's about being frustrated and just wanting to give up and get out of it? That's what I think anyway.
