There's nothing I can say to build these bridges back Against the tides that washed them away The life has left this room Like a thousand fires gone black against the sky and scarlet moon The smoke is in the air, choking out the sun It's rising in the air, I can't see And I will find you there, somewhere in the dark Buried in a place between dead and broken hearts There's safety in the darkness, there's safety in the dark I have left these shores to face the tempest night That stirs the stars against the waters with its storms The sirens sing their song It's like a thousand hands that pull me down and break the course I travel on The ocean fills my lungs, drowning out the sun It's rising in my lungs, I can't breathe I close my eyes to see the light that's leading me

I had the strangest dream, you were lost at sea I found you drowning on the ocean floor I woke from my deep sleep to end the misery I found you lying outside of my door I tried to wake you up, to shake you up And found out you were dead Like a leaf in the wind, you left me standing alone To face the demons in my head We're making fiction of our lives Burning pages as we write We read the lies between the lines These dead letters won't survive A dusty record spins, an old song plays again The needle dragging across its skin Ink spills through my pen, the paper soaks it in The music bringing tremors to my hands I can't just give you up, just lift you up To chance on a dragonfly's wings With my love in the wind You left me standing alone Hoping it brings you back to me We're making fiction of our lives Burning pages as we write We read the lies between the lines These dead letters won't survive We're making fiction of our lives Burning pages as we write We read the lies between the lines These dead letters won't survive We are not poets We have no right to make amendments This story's over, this chapter's closing I don't know how it ends But I really don't like how it begins We're making fiction of our lives Burning pages as we write We read the lies between the lines These dead letters won't survive We're making fiction of our lives Burning pages as we write We read the lies between the lines These dead letters won't survive We're burning pages We're burning pages now

You know that (You know that) You give into it (Give into it) The countless times you did Don't kid (Don't kid) Yourself in this (Yourself in this) Pity the mind you're living in Jumping ship Sinking fast Hold your breath While the others pass How much time is left for you to work this out? Is it worth it now? (Is it worth it now?) Swim right into the center of all your doubt Take the route you won't allow (Is it worth it?) Is it worth it now? (Is it worth it?) Is it worth it now? (Is it worth it?) Is it worth it now? Disinterest in the things that made you wanna live Is sad enough itself, isn't it? Down as you are Couldn't be deeper than the past And to that, you must confess (Just be honest) Jumping ship Sinking fast Hold your breath While the others pass How much time is left for you to work this out? Is it worth it now? (Is it worth it now?) Swim right into the center of all your doubt Take the route you won't allow (Is it worth it?) Is it worth it now? (Is it worth it?) Is it worth it now? Is it worth it now? (Is it worth it now?) (Is it worth it?)
