Disasters - TRACE

Rest my head against the wall, waitin' for a call that never came 'Cause time moves so slowly when you're still holding on to blame I tried but can't forget the day You reachin' for my hand as I touched your face When your secrets were still safe from me 'Til your eyes gave you away 'Cause we are drowning above the water in a movie drained of colour Luckless lovers with a past that's just a string of small disasters I'd give it all just to feel somethin' real And now I see the warning signs with the benefit of hindsight, I was blind To the way you'd make me feel so crazy just to protect your lies And all I wanted was the truth, the better part of you that I still see 'Cause love is all we have to give, but you took my best for free 'Cause we are drowning above the water in a movie drained of colour Luckless lovers with a past that's just a string of small disasters I'd give it all just to feel somethin' real And the one thing that really hurts is We were so close to being perfect And I know you'll be okay And that's what kills me, yeah 'Cause we are drowning above the water in a movie drained of colour Luckless lovers with a past that's just a string of small disasters 'Cause we are drowning above the water in a movie drained of colour Luckless lovers with a past that's just a string of small disasters I'd give it all just to feel somethin' real, somethin' real Oh, I'd give it all just to feel somethin' real

We were alone on the road, driving faster So far from home, we were chasing disaster Hard on the gas, 'til the car caught on fire We had to laugh, as the smoke billowed higher I wanna feel alive forever after And you say, you say you wanna feel alive forever after And I, and I, and I say Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight through the dreams and disasters Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight to the edge and the after We won't turn around We will not slow down Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight through the dreams and disasters Think of the sun, and the sound of it rising Still on the run with our eyes on the horizon I wanna feel alive forever after And you say, you say you wanna feel alive forever after And I, and I, and I say Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight through the dreams and disasters Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight to the edge and the after We won't turn around We will not slow down Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight through the dreams and disasters I just wanna feel alive I just wanna feel alive I just wanna feel alive I just wanna feel alive I just wanna feel alive Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight through the dreams and disasters Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight to the edge and the after We won't turn around We will not slow down Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight through the dreams and disasters We won't turn around We will not slow down Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ight through the dreams and disasters

Say farewell to the anchor This ship is sailing away This ship is sailing away Say farewell to the anchor This ship is sailing away And as we watch the sky consume it's remains We watch the sky consume it's remains And we swim to shore We swim to shore There is no surviving disasters like these So before we go our separate ways we'll plan where to meet There is no surviving this with the way we're living Say farewell to my fate Because I've found myself digging my own grave I'm trying to find a new direction But every sign points toward the ground As we washed up on the shore Our legs brushed the sand As we washed up on the shore Our legs brushed the sand And before we go our separate ways we'll plan where to meet There is no surviving disasters like these And before we go our separate ways we'll plan where to meet There is no surviving this with the way we're living We're running back and forth over the paths we've made And before we go our separate ways we'll plan where to meet What if this isn't it And there's nothing we can do What if this isn't it There's nothing we can do There's nothing we can do There's nothing we can do

Don't wanna be second best Don't wanna stand in line Don't wanna fall behind Don't wanna get caught out Don't want to do without Oh and the lesson I must learn Is that I've got to wait my turn Looks like I gotta be hot and cold Gotta be taught and told Got to be good as gold But perfectly, honestly Oh, I think it would be good for me 'Cause it's a hindrance to my health If I'm a stranger to myself Oh, miniature disasters and minor catastrophes Bring me to my knees Well, I must be my own master Or a miniature disaster will be, oh It will be the death of me I don't have to raise my voice Don't have to be underhand Just gotta understand That it's gonna be up and down It's going to be lost and found Oh, and I can't take to the sky Before I like it on the ground And I need to be patient And I need to be brave Need to discover How I need to behave And I'll find out the answers When I know what to ask But I speak a different language And everybody's talkin' too fast Miniature disasters and minor catastrophes Bring me to my knees, yeah Well, I must be my own master Or a miniature disaster will be, will be, yeah, yeah Well, I've gotta run a little faster Or a miniature disaster will be, will be Oh well, I need to know I'll last If a little miniature disaster hits me, oh, oh It will be the death of me
