Lyrics:
I close my eyes and the world is so dark and so heavy I open my eyes and I see that I was not ready For the smoke through the floorboards and the fire that began to start For the shapes of the figures and the towering weight of my heart CHORUS We will run as the temperature climbs Fall to the other side We will fight, fight for our lives But to fly, we must open our eyes With a rush to the door, the earth slips out from underneath her So weightless she feels and unsteady for the child was not with her Hurry, she calls, before the fear settles into the part Of the girl whos aware of how much she must trust with her heart CHORUS We run past the trails, past the signs Past the posts, past the line of revival of hope Past the black, orange, red of the looming, glimmering light Lies beneath us, around us, surrounds us in the night Here are the words, here are the songs we could not remember The tune is the light is the light is the color of ember, of emberLyrics:
Overwhelmed by places I cannot erase the memory of our fall Oh, but its a time to recognize my saints But Im not waking up at all Pray over my head Fill up on the bread Its all that I have to give while you may violently repent For something I said But I never asked for a second chance Just for this one to be a life I wont resent CHORUS I see faces and colors That long for each other But I cant live in the palm of your hand Sisters and Brothers Look out for each other For who wants to be misled Oh... Open wide our stances For the silent dances are not just for us to be redeemed Every breath we take is overturned By our intentions of getting to where we want to be Pray over my head That I may be well fed That we may discover love before were old And before our deathbed May we be protected from dangers and lies in the stories we have been told CHORUS I see faces and colors Love one anotherLyrics:
Lets play a game on this patterned swing Where our lives are buried in fortune and fame Lets say that blame is nothing but a tired scheme And theyve shot us to death Theyve shot us to death But were still alive And the night is where we left it And the starting line is where weve found our chance to survive Second lives and now were back to the beginning CHORUS And we will laugh, we will cry Send our torches to the sky Where hearts linger and sorrows will drown with the night We will fly, we will see with our eyes That there is so much more to this pain Were on the mend But were tired of struggling to find purchase to climb To the top of the lonely peak Where weve stepped on each other only to be King of a hill that no one can see Impatiently wanting everything But one faulty step and were back to the beginning CHORUS And we feel that theres so much more to this feelingLyrics:
I fall apart in my head in this space All of the life is in my suitcase Lonely I wander in this place but I find a way To bet on the wires Bet on the cold hopes of our ship to unfold And stamp out the waters, useless desires All of it with our stories untold CHORUS: This is me holding on This is me holding on Bound to the certainties Comfort I just cant leave Do I trust your ways Bound to desires of the life I never wanted anyway And all that Im asking for is an opportunity to escape But all I have found is the lack of courage not to stay CHORUS Past the breaking point Past the breaking point Past the breaking point Lonely I wander past the breaking point Unpack my suitcase Lonely I wander past the breaking point Dream of a new placeLyrics:
I could count the reasons Ive had Like the stars Ill never ever run out of them But our nights are numbered and Ive fed myself with every list of why I should turn around But I know Ill know better when all my chances have just slipped away But my shaking fingers cannot turn the handle When I dont know the forecast beyond today CHORUS And I try And I try And I try to let it go But Im not so rational Can I find Can I find Can I find a ray of hope That somehow, someday Ill find a way I go weak when I think of how you might wonder what I am wondering But still my tongue finds it hard to speak And so I find myself fumbling For words to tell you that you should know what Im feeling Before its much too late Still Ive had my share of opening empty cases And the broken piece is telling me love can wait CHORUS All my, all my questions have just piled up high trying to make my case that All my, all my fears have been answered and Ive only got myself to blame that Oh my, oh my hands are shaking Oh my, oh my But Im awake and Oh my, oh my Heart is racing Oh my Please say that Im not too lateLyrics:
This is a quiet prayer for the ones who we have lost And the ones weve yet to lose but are gone We long for unbridled joy in the moments we have shared the same air We breathe with you CHORUS Move on with love Move on for me Move on for love Move on Say the word and I will follow you until the earth is no longer beneath the footsteps I have made And I will miss you until the air is gone from my lungs and the thumping in my chest goes away CHORUS Hope, I will wear you like a ring Sometimes its the only comforting thing Hope, I will wear you when Im wondering When time will take away this beautiful sting CHORUS I will hold on to a picture of you there For now, its as close as I can get to youLyrics:
You can see my branches on the ground You can hear the voices, bitter sounds You can feel the dirt underneath your feet Its gone and made a mess of me PRE-?CHORUS: Swallow your pride Be strong Dont follow the tide Its wrong to fight against a beating heart Its only hardest at the start CHORUS: All I want is for you to put me back together Put me back together All I want is for you to put me back together Put me back together Can you feel my last trace of my acclaim Has fallen with my fight to be known by my name Can you see that Im not strong, I am weak Can you tell that Im not who I was made to be PRE-?CHORUS (I cant, I cant, I cant) CHORUS And all I want... Wrap your arms around the scars Around the tears Around the reasons why were scared of who we are Around our faults Around our dreams Around the pieces of ourselves that have been torn apart Weve been torn apart All I want is for you to put me back together Put me back together All I want is for you to put me back together Put me back togetherLyrics:
I close my eyes and the world is so dark and so heavy I open my eyes and I see that I was not ready For the smoke through the floorboards and the fire that began to start For the shapes of the figures and the towering weight of my heart CHORUS We will run as the temperature climbs Fall to the other side We will fight, fight for our lives But to fly, we must open our eyes With a rush to the door, the earth slips out from underneath her So weightless she feels and unsteady for the child was not with her Hurry, she calls, before the fear settles into the part Of the girl whos aware of how much she must trust with her heart CHORUS We run past the trails, past the signs Past the posts, past the line of revival of hope Past the black, orange, red of the looming, glimmering light Lies beneath us, around us, surrounds us in the night Here are the words, here are the songs we could not remember The tune is the light is the light is the color of ember, of emberLyrics:
I am invisible but so is the wind that cuts through the air and freezes our veins That cuts through the storms, blinds us with dust, moves us to fear and fights us to change No way have a begun to lay down my rights to say you have already won My weapons are drawn, heavy with silence for the ground we walk on CHORUS Breathe Breathe fire into my lungs Well be ready, dangerous The chosen ones So, will I hear the bells toll when the days are marked for the young and the old Will I be the hero to come to break through the hurricane to break back the sun to you Ready to beat the drum Set off a warning sound for us Dangerous as the ones wholl never let go, never let up Ready to beat the drum I will be the one
