Oh, I can see the storms in her eyes now I'm falling overboard in the waves In over my head and she's a high tide That keeps pushing me away I thought that we would build this together But everything I touch just seems to break Am I your sail or your anchor? Am I the calm or the hurricane? I feel the ground start to shake I hear a voice shouting "Move" But there is no fucking way I'd leave you So I'll just hold you like a hand grenade You touch me like a razor blade I wish there was some other way right now, oh oh oh oh And like a house on fire we're wrapped in flames I'd burn here if that's what it takes To let you know I won't let go of you, oh oh oh oh But is the soundtrack to our lives The bang of a slamming door? What happens when we all start to feel like Nothing matters anymore? Every day like a chambered round, a trigger pulled A hammer click, a breath we hold A world outside I can't control No matter what I do So I'll just hold you like a hand grenade You touch me like a razor blade I wish there was some other way right now, oh oh oh oh And like a house on fire we're wrapped in flames I'd burn here if that's what it takes To let you know I won't let go of you, oh oh oh oh Oh oh, oh, oh, oh How is it a thing? That we just wanna hurt each other I'm waiting on for rain Feels like is gonna rain forever Someday you will learn That all I ever did was for you And I would do it all again Yeah, I would do it all again And 'til then I'll hold you like a hand grenade You'll touch me like a razor blade I wish there was some other way right now, oh oh oh oh Like a house on fire we're wrapped in flames I'd burn here if that's what it takes To let you know I can't let go of you, oh oh oh oh Of you Of you, oh oh oh oh Of you Of you

We scan the empty sky Always without success We're lighting signal fires And spelling "SOS" We stare at broken clocks The truth comes twice a day While every second just slips away Are you gonna wait here for a sign to let you know now? Are you gonna sit there paralyzed by what you've seen? Or are you gonna finally grip the wheel? I think you know how Is this more than you expected it to be? Don't wait for a miracle To tumble from the sky To part the seas around you Or turn water into wine Don't wait for a miracle The world is passing by The walls, that will surround you Are only in your mind, oh oh oh And the stage is set And the curtains pulled Ready or not, it's time, on with the show And now the crowds have grown impatient And the train has left the station And the candles you are burning in the dark will fade away So what what are you waiting for? A sign to let you know now? Are you gonna sit there paralyzed by what you've seen? Or are you gonna finally grip the wheel? I think you know how Are you gonna throw it all away? Don't wait for a miracle To tumble from the sky To part the seas around you Or turn water into wine Don't wait for a miracle The world is passing by The walls, that will surround you Are only in your mind, oh oh oh When the weight we carry breaks us, we're tempted to stay down But every road to recovery starts at the breakdown But we don't need miracles To tumble from the sky To part the seas around us Or turn water into wine 'Cause we are the miracles We happen all the time We're not scared of what surrounds us We're not waiting for a sign 'Cause we are the miracles Yeah, we are the miracles We are the miracles Hey

Can you hear the desperate cries That are calling out your name Twisting your arms Holding out their hands and tugging at your sleeve? Do you feel this underlying sense of urgency Or are you as blind as me? I hit the ground and I'm still running But need a place to stay tonight I swear I'll be gone in the morning I just need somewhere now I can't bear the thought of losing I dread the attention winning brings And ever since the day I came here I can stand without your strings I'm so sick of all these people But I'm scared to be alone If this life has taught me anything I forgot it long ago and so I Hit the ground and I'm still running But I need a place to stay tonight I swear I'll be gone in the morning I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes Hit the ground and I'm still running But I need a place to stay tonight I swear I'll be gone in the morning I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes The heart is something you can't control We either choose to follow Or be left on our own So we're leaving here on a less-travelled road As the desperate cries grow louder I know we're getting close We're getting close I hit the ground and I'm still running But I need a place to stay tonight I swear I'll be gone in the morning I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes Hit the ground and I'm still running But I need a place to stay tonight I swear I'll be gone in the morning I just need somewhere warm to close my eyes

It kills me not to know this But I've all but just forgotten What the color of her eyes were And her scars or how she got them As the telling signs of age rain down A single tear is dropping Through the valleys of an aging face That this world has forgotten There is no reconciliation That will put me in my place And there is no time like the present To drink these draining seconds But seldom do these words ring true When I'm constantly failing you Like walls that we just can't break through Until we disappear So tell me now If this ain't love then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know That's when she said, "I don't hate you boy I just want to save you while there's still something left to save" That's when I told her, "I love you girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have" Whoa whoa, whoa And the day pressed on like crushing weights For no man does it ever wait Like memories of dying days That deafen us like hurricanes Bathed in flames we held the brand Uncurled the fingers in your hand Pressed into the flesh like sand Now do you understand? So tell me now If this ain't love then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know That's when she said, "I don't hate you boy I just want to save you while there's still something left to save" That's when I told her, "I love you girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have" Whoa whoa, whoa One thousand miles away There's nothing left to say But so much left that I don't know We never had a choice This world is too much noise It takes me under It takes me under once again I don't hate you I don't hate you, no But tell me now If this ain't love then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know That's when she said, "I don't hate you boy I just want to save you while there's still something left to save" That's when I told her, "I love you girl But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have" Whoa whoa, whoa And I don't hate you I don't hate you, no, whoa, whoa And I don't hate you No, I don't hate you Whoa whoa, whoa

Do you see the world in different colors? Do you see the world in black and gray? Alone in your thoughts How many others have stood where you stand Where you stand today? I've stood where you stand But oh, can you... Wait for me now? To take off this crown To break all these vows Don't you know? Wait for me now The air's running out Wait for me, wait for me Wait for me, wait for me now The promise of safe return I delivered But the ocean is wider than I first guessed When roads disappeared, I followed the rivers But somehow got in over my head So a deep breath I'm taking Wait for me now To take off this crown To break all these vows Don't you know? Wait for me now The air's running out Wait for me, wait for me Wait for me, wait for me now A lost dream of what could have been A house on fire, a tangled web The key turns to find the locks have changed In time to hear the back door slam A sound that to this day I can't forget The colors drained to black and gray, oh Wait for me now To take off this crown To break all these vows Don't you know? Wait for me now The air's running out Wait for me, wait for me Wait for me, wait for me now

Wait, I'm not listening to you now I wasn't listening to you then And I know that nothing will be the same again There's only so much I can handle, only so much I can take 'Fore my knees start to buckle And my arms start to shake Have we been here before? Will we be here again? I don't know how much more of me you expect Standing here right now And I beg for you to let go I dread the day you finally do I fight for your attention Too little too late or too much too soon And how long will this plague the time We share from here on out? And how long will this taint All these words spilling from my mouth? Have we been here before? Will we be here again? I don't know how much more of me you expect, yeah I'm standing here right now Standing here right now Have we been here before? Will we be here again? I don't know how much more of me you expect

I feel the same No different than before There was a time when what you thought of me once mattered I put weight behind your words Then something snapped Deep down inside me Tectonic shifts aligning Soft image into focus Snap fingers break hypnosis Light through the crack, and then everything went black And I am not the person you remember from before The one you patronized and stepped on, the one you hurt (whoa-oh-oh-oh) And I have pulled the arrows, now my skin has become stone No longer am I prisoner to your empty fucking words I carried every single word you said They stacked up high, they weighed me down But underneath it all, I didn't notice I was growing strong somehow Lean backward through an open window Nothing left can save me now I hear the cry of the approaching sirens right as I count down Then something snapped A lightbulb moment Like sighting land from the ocean Pure water in the desert A thirst that can't be measured The first breath of a child Released into the wild I am not the person you remember from before The one you patronized and stepped on, the one you hurt (whoa-oh-oh-oh) And I have pulled the arrows, now my skin has become stone No longer am I prisoner to your empty fucking words And your pain, it's an open secret It spills with every breath And this game that you played is over now And gone are the days I was helpless and afraid, yeah Gone are the walls that kept me in Yeah, I, I'm not the person That you remember from before Yeah, I, I'm not the person (not the person) That you remember from before Yeah, I, I'm not the person That you remember from before That you remember That you remember Do you remember? Do you remember?

Do you spend your days counting the hours you're awake? And when night covers the sky, you find yourself doing the same It's a burden you've been bearing in spite of all your prayers As a light turns off inside your heart Can you remember what it's like to care? Knees are weak, hands are shaking, I can't breathe So give me the drug, keep me alive Give me what's left of my life Don't let me go, whoa Pull this plug, let me breathe On my own, I'm finally free Don't let me go, whoa The trail of crumbs you left somehow got lost along the way If you never meant to leave then you only had to stay But the memories that haunt us are cherished just the same As the words that bring us closer to the sky No matter how gray, yet I fall through these clouds Reaching, screaming Give me the drug, keep me alive Give me what's left of my life Don't let me go, whoa Pull this plug, let me breathe On my own, I'm finally free Don't let me go, whoa This grip loosens, but it never breaks (never breaks) We carry nothing but a name you will forsake Your words are always there to break my fall (break my fall) In them, I find the comfort, to see through it all Guide me through uncharted waters Before we lose our way again Will you be my compass until forever? Until forever ends? Knees are weak, hands are shaking, I can't breathe So give me the drug, keep me alive Give me what's left of my life Don't let me go, whoa Pull this plug, let me breathe On my own, I'm finally free Don't let me go, whoa Don't let me go, whoa Don't let me go, whoa
