The lyrics to Raw are as follows:
How did we become so raw
It took a few years but I couldn't unravel the questions
Something you don't talk about and I don't ask
Finding the right balance between strangeness and familiarity
Something that would have been hurtful if I had said it
There's a reason why I choose to remain silent.
If I love someone
If I'm willing to be a companion
I'm willing to make sacrifices
Maybe in exchange for a name
It's not impossible
I'm not afraid to be stupid in love
I'm not afraid to love and then split up
There are ten thousand ways of loving someone
And ten thousand possibilities
I just didn't realize
We ended up as friends
How did we become so distant
We had to keep our words in check
Fear of not paying attention to the rumor mill
Seeing the needle in the eye
Fear of accidentally making us
Strangers
How did we become so distant
It took me a few years to unravel the question of how we could become friends. It's taken years to unravel the questions
Some things you don't mention and I don't ask
Finding the balance between the strange and the familiar
Some things hurt when you say them
So I choose to keep quiet
Loving someone
If you're willing to go along with them
And willing to die
Perhaps in exchange for a name
It's not impossible to do that. It's not impossible
I'm not afraid to be a fool in love
I'm not afraid to love and then be divided
There are a million identities
a million possibilities
I just didn't think we'd end up
as friends
How did we get so separated
We have to be careful about what we say? I'm afraid of not paying attention to the rumors
I'm afraid that we'll become strangers by accident
How did we become so distant
It took us years to unravel the questions
There are some things that you don't talk about and I don't ask about them
Finding the right balance between the strange and the familiar
How did we become so distant
It took me a few years to get to the point where I was not sure if I was going to be able to talk about them.
If I don't pay attention to the rumor mill
If I don't watch out for strangers
How did we become so distant
It took me a few years, but I couldn't solve the problem
There are things you don't mention and I don't ask
Balancing the familiar and the unfamiliar
This is a good idea.
