I’ve kept quiet Buried away Beneath the heart Behind the veil A curse Everything that’s wrong in this world Taxing every breath Every life, equal Every bomb and shell Marching through our towns They burn it all, burn it all Down to the ground Here we’ve found A safe place to hide our fears. Here we’ve found, Our eden. Here we’ve found A safe place to hide our fears.

We can’t turn back The engine has come to a screeching halt There is no stage here. Play hero, hide the wounds that scarred False courage, Her frantic eyes and a hollow helpless smile. See through this shell of a body, Tell me where to go from here. Honesty and hope is all we need. A gentle touch to approve of the lives we lead. We lock the truth away behind closed doors, But our words seep through the floors like chemicals. Words seep through the floors. Dear self, The weight you have born Is so very taxing Send help, Your spine’s only straight with loved ones to back it. Honesty and hope is all we need. A gentle touch to approve of the lives we lead. We lock the truth away behind closed doors. But our words seep through the floors like chemicals. I won't let myself fall by their hands. Let me be guided, by someone Who finally understands.

Our eyes are wide, Against the night As darkness spreads, envelops light And the wind speaks out As she pulls, And presses on your bones. Here we stand Patiently awaiting things that will never come Forget the sun Retire, for we’ve set, fire to the sea. What have we done? Gathered up our foolish pride, Gave it all unto the tide. Clear out your lungs, As the air leaves your frame Your eyes begin to strain To see what we’ve done Now what have we to run from? Now what have we to run from? Her voice is so delicate Her winds seem so calm And the sun’s out tonight, Or is that just pride, To quicken my pulse Encompass it all? We’ve grown so distant from love Now what have we to run from? It was dark tonight after all, Or were our eyes just closed? The flames at sea have grown so tall Forget, what we don’t know. It was dark tonight after all, Or were our eyes just closed? The flames at sea have grown so tall Gone, what we don’t know.

Echoes, of what went wrong. Colder, and over again. Haunted, reminders of us. Breathe in, but never Out. This, must be love. This, must be love. I speak tonight of a love that should never have been lost. This, must be love. This, must be love. You put your spin on the truth just to make it work for you. This, must be love. This, must be. . . Falling apart. So speak easy, one last time, Just come out and say, Lie one more time, We’ll never change. Never change. I speak tonight of a love that should never have been lost. This, must be love. This, must be love. You put your spin on the truth just to make it work for you. This, must be love. This, must be. . . Love loses shape, Iodine stains skin, We’re left, Holding fragments of broken glass. Clamor.

We've created nothing but a reason to sleep Tangled up our lives within the sheets Hidden away from a fate we can't escape Running from all the choices we must make I'd imagined better times in lives I'd dreamt As a child my love meant permanence Every bond that I was made to break I swore to myself that things would stay the same (Vision clouded) Within your eyes (I find myself) I find myself (Losing footing) Burning bright (But gaining ground) Still yearning Pull in the shades Drown out the light Everything just falls in place in time Let's keep things quiet 'Til we've found the last piece That fits Oh it's a war, in my head, in my heart, in my core Our ties are strained A cigarette burnin out just the same as the time Left to fend for myself and I'm fallin behind A gentle touch just enough to help me forget Hold me close 'til my ghosts leave me with the sunset I'd imagined better nights in lives I'd dreamt As a lover my heart was confident Our chests can catch every rhythm sent Keep our blood pumpin’, pumpin’ in (Vision clouded) Within your eyes (I find myself) I find myself (Losing footing) Burning bright (But gaining ground) Still yearning Pull in the shades Drown out the light Everything just falls in place in time Let's keep things quiet 'Til we've found the last piece That fits Oh it's a war, in my head, in my heart, in my core Our ties are strained Oh it's a war, in my head, in my heart, in my core Our ties are strained Locked away the same artificial night Like candle wicks we'll keep on burnin We'll keep on burnin (repeat x4) We've developed a reputation for hiding Yeah, in the back of the closet counting steps There's a war inside my house Crashing down like waves on pavement Soon to sweep me away A beating pulse from the heart inside my chest (Vision clouded) Within your eyes (I find myself) I find myself (Losing footing) Burning bright (But gaining ground) Still yearning Pull in the shades Drown out the light Everything just falls in place in time Let's keep things quiet 'Til we've found the last piece That fits
