I've been drunk all night You keep calling Are they happy now? Watchin' us falling Secret we should hide Don't know if I can It's who we are This is who I am Oh tonight they are up for love But our world Isn't ready To Understand us Remember I would be with you Even though we're letting go Guess I need to find someone like you If this is what I have to do 'Cause the Odds are against us Driving to the hills Chasing the sun We are just two boys Don't know why we run If we end it now Heavens got no tears We can fly so high Far away from here Find some light They are up for love But our world Isn't ready If there's open scars Remember I would be with you Even though we're letting go Guess I need to find someone like you If this is what I have to do 'Cause the Odds are against us Let them going You know we should try Oh you know we should try If this what we want You know in our lives It happens just one time There's only one chance Remember I would be with you Even though we're letting go Guess I need to find someone like you If this is what I have to do 'Cause the Odds are against us

I'm tired of fightin' It really messed me up this time Tired of tryin' I'm ready to leave it all behind I don't wanna lose my other me Am I really still right here? I wanna drown with it, I, I... Let the rain come You can never leave the soul unguided I'm still crawling, I can't see no sky yet But sometimes love can come from nothing But love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me This place reminds me I keep my eyes wide shut to hide Denying you're gone now And I am down here all alone Some say that time will heal me I need to get to higher ground But I wanna feel it, I, I... Let the pain come You can never leave the soul unguided I'm still crawling, I can't see no sky yet On broken wings I'm barely flyin' But love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me I need to get home But I keep on holding on, holding on Love don't break me I need to get home But I keep on holding on, holding on Love don't break me Love don't break me You can never leave the soul unguided I'm still crawling, I can't see no sky yet On broken wings I'm barely flyin' But love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me

I can't forget All of the memories, baby I'm wonderin' Do you still want me, baby? I medicate my mind Come iluminate my night I'm all alone I can't face my broken heart So tell me what you wanna do Tell me what you won't do I close my eyes and all that I see is you I can't escape I can't erase You, you I can't forget, it's not the same without You, you You I'm not over You, you, you You I'm not over You, you, you Stuck here I am, burning for love again I'm lost somehow Cannot come out to you I medicate my mind Come iluminate my night I'm all alone, I can't face my broken heart So tell me what you wanna do Tell me what you won't do I close my eyes and all that I see is you I can't escape, I can't erase You, you I can't forget, it's not the same without you You I'm not over You, you, you You I'm not over You, you, you I'm sick of fighting this Acting like I'm okay Here I am Still wondering No, I'm not okay Here I am Still wondering I can't escape, I can't erase You, you I can't forget, it's not the same without you You I'm not over You, you, you You I'm not over You, you, you
