This fall is a little more than I expected
In so deep I can barely see myself
The air around me feels so heavy but depleted
But I find this the place to test myself
Cause it here where I lay in my blanket of despair
Where I’m weak but I’m strong and black smoke fills the air
Where I’m burned and broken battered bruised
I’m blind but I’m seeing
I’m lost then found then almost drowned
I’m so far from believing
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
Wooh oh oh oh
In darkness I find meaning
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m broken but I’m healing
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
I’m burning low but I can see no finish line
My demons tell I should quit and turn back
The smallest flame can light up the darkest night
But it’s not enough to keep them off my track
Cause it here where I lay in my blanket of despair
Where I’m weak but I’m strong and black smoke fills the air
Where I’m burned and broken battered bruised
I’m blind but I’m seeing
I’m lost then found then almost drowned
I’m so far from believing
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
Wooh oh oh oh
In darkness I find meaning
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m broken but I’m healing
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
Are my lungs enough for the smoke and dust
Or will I lose control?
I breathe it in let the darkness win
Put pressure on my soul
I hear the sound no longer bound to the man I was before
For my broken mind, this is the time
To build to something more
Here where I lay in my blanket of despair
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
Wooh oh oh oh
In darkness I find meaning
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m broken but I’m healing
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
In so deep I can barely see myself
The air around me feels so heavy but depleted
But I find this the place to test myself
Cause it here where I lay in my blanket of despair
Where I’m weak but I’m strong and black smoke fills the air
Where I’m burned and broken battered bruised
I’m blind but I’m seeing
I’m lost then found then almost drowned
I’m so far from believing
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
Wooh oh oh oh
In darkness I find meaning
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m broken but I’m healing
Wooh oh oh oh
I’m bleeding but I’m breathing
I’m burning low but I can see no finish line

I wake to see
Your golden smile
Feel of a thousand kisses
Oh please stay a while
I reach up to hold
Your sunlit face
Feels like a handful of silk now
I’m in your warm embrace
Oh I hope this feeling lasts
'Till the oceans turn to glass
And the world around us turns and fades to black
Together we’ll hold back the sun
In this moment forever young
Against the stream of time, we’ll run baby
We’ll hold back the sun
This feeling moves me
Every single day
I’m captured by your charm
Enchanted by your ways
In the magic of your eyes
I become lost in their spell
So come closer my dear because all is well
Oh I hope this feeling lasts
'Till the oceans turn to glass
And the world around us turns and fades to black
Together we’ll hold back the sun
In this moment forever young
Against the stream of time, we’ll run baby
We’ll hold back the sun
When the sun goes down and the world spins round
When I lay right next to you
I can’t close my eyes
Even though I try
These perfect moments are few
I fall to sleeps in embrace
In the morning I wake to that perfect side of you
Together we’ll hold back the sun
In the moment forever young
Against the stream of time, we’ll run baby
We’ll hold back the sun
In the moment forever young
Against the stream of time, we’ll run baby
We’ll hold back the sun
In this moment forever
Your golden smile
Feel of a thousand kisses
Oh please stay a while
I reach up to hold
Your sunlit face
Feels like a handful of silk now
I’m in your warm embrace
Oh I hope this feeling lasts

And the world around us turns and fades to black

My empty heart walks on and on
It’s always lonesome yet not alone
Always trying to fill the void inside
I’ve tried moving on forgetting you
But it’s hard to replace when it’s part of you
And nothing ever compares to you and me
Oh I think about you every night
Tell me what am I supposed to do
Because I feel like nothing without you
Oh I am nothing oh sweet nothing
Without you oh oh oh oh
Without you oh oh oh oh
I see you everywhere in all I do
There’s always something that reminds me of you
When you called me yours and I could call you mine
Well the signs are everywhere all around
I wake in the morning with you nowhere to be found
Tears mixed with your scent and my heart falls to the ground
Oh I think about you every night
Tell me what am I supposed to do
Because I feel like nothing without you
Oh I am nothing oh sweet nothing
Without you oh oh oh oh
Without you oh oh oh oh
Tell me what to do now this is up to you now
Never know what you’ve got till it’s gone
Look at where we are now to separate hearts now
Tell me what to do now this is up to you now
Never know what you’ve got till it’s gone
Look at where we are now to separate hearts now
Without you oh oh oh oh
Without you oh oh oh oh
Without you
Without you
Without you oh oh oh oh
Now I see you with someone new
You smile at him the way I smiled at you
Now our something is now nothing
Without you
It’s always lonesome yet not alone
Always trying to fill the void inside
I’ve tried moving on forgetting you
But it’s hard to replace when it’s part of you
And nothing ever compares to you and me
Oh I think about you every night
Tell me what am I supposed to do
Because I feel like nothing without you
Oh I am nothing oh sweet nothing
Without you oh oh oh oh

Now I see you with someone new
You smile at him the way I smiled at you
Now our something is now nothing
Without you

As I stand here waiting for my heart to speak the truth
I feel my bones collapse around the site of you
Her soul is like the sun and gives light to carry on
And gives me reason to still my shaking hands
So I hold my head up high
Let me pour my heart out into your hands
Let my love run through your veins like sand
I hope this is enough for you to understand
That I want to be your man
When she parts she leaves a hole inside my precious heart
That can only be filled by her
She sees my lips begin to quake
She reaches for my hand
And I fall under loves true spell
So I hold my head up high
Let me pour my heart out into your hands
Let my love run through your veins like sand
I hope this is enough for you to understand
That I want to be your man
Well I can feel my heartbeat
Well I can feel your heartbeat
Well I can feel our hearts beat
Let me pour my heart out into your hands
Let my love run through your veins like sand
I hope this is enough for you to understand
That I want to be your man
I feel my bones collapse around the site of you
Her soul is like the sun and gives light to carry on
And gives me reason to still my shaking hands
So I hold my head up high
Let me pour my heart out into your hands
Let my love run through your veins like sand
I hope this is enough for you to understand
That I want to be your man
When she parts she leaves a hole inside my precious heart
That can only be filled by her
She sees my lips begin to quake
She reaches for my hand
And I fall under loves true spell
So I hold my head up high
Let me pour my heart out into your hands
Let my love run through your veins like sand

I watch you bow your head each day
It’s the little things that make you feel this way
Don’t let their words fill you up with doubt
Lift your head and watch your dreams branch out
Don’t you give up now
You have made your vows
You might not know how
But you will find the key
Feel your soul arise
From that spark in your eyes
Watch it come alive
This is your destiny
To you who thought that it can’t be done
Can you see how far you’ve come?
There so much more space for you to fly
So why give up on what you love if you haven’t tried
Don’t you give up now
You have made your vows
You might not know how
But you will find the key
Feel your soul arise
From that spark in your eyes
Watch it come alive
This is your destiny
When hope fades away
And you’ve been led astray
When there nothing left to lose
When you feel you have to choose
What you love or need
Let your heart take the lead
Take it all in your stride
Show 'em all what’s inside
Keep your dreams in your sight
Hold on with all your might
Stay strong
Keep moving on
Don’t you give up now
You have made your vows
You might not know how
But you will find the key
Feel your soul arise
From that spark in your eyes
Watch it come alive
This is your destiny

Oh her love keeps me warm
Oh her love keeps me warm
But her heart
Don’t rest here no more
Some people say that you’ll never come back to me
So I cry to the wind that you might hear me
My heart is cold and heavy I’ve taken it from my sleeve
My darling I’m sorry I drove you away from me
Never meant to break you
Never meant for you to see
All the darkness and pain left inside of me
Took me this long to find out you’re all that I need
Never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
Every day my heart wonders I wonder why
Don’t say no 'cause I know that I’ll be better this time
Oh her love keeps me warm
Oh her love keeps me warm
Oh her love kept me warm
But her heart don’t rest here no more
Oh her love keeps me warm
But her heart
Don’t rest here no more
Some people say that you’ll never come back to me
So I cry to the wind that you might hear me
My heart is cold and heavy I’ve taken it from my sleeve
My darling I’m sorry I drove you away from me
Never meant to break you
Never meant for you to see
All the darkness and pain left inside of me
Took me this long to find out you’re all that I need
Never meant to hurt you
Never meant to make you cry
Every day my heart wonders I wonder why
Don’t say no 'cause I know that I’ll be better this time
Oh her love keeps me warm
Oh her love keeps me warm
Oh her love kept me warm
But her heart don’t rest here no more
