Hold me in deep within the skin that I’m showing Fighting back Fighting back the fear, the fear of not knowing The scars on my face, they won’t heal And I cannot erase the clouds or conceal how much I wanted to feel something new We could be in love, in love We could be in love, in love Follow me to the darkest places And suddenly, the light starts to chase us down the street To where we would first meet The stars slowly fall away and you were counting the seasons too We’re fighting back the urge to see the possibility We could be in love, in love We could be in love, in love Love, love, love (What are you so afraid of?) Love, love, love What are you so afraid of? Maybe the clouds will never part and you Will never see the side of me that’s too Buried in between the hearts of who have never seen That we could be in love We will never be in love I will never be in love Will I ever be enough We could be in love Love We could be in love We could be in love We could be, we could be, we could be, we could be in love We could be, we could be, we could be , we could be in love

You should know I wouldn’t trade a second of what little time we had But I wonder how my youth had come and gone It came and went so fast Don’t stop, don’t wait I wouldn’t hesitate to do it all over again But I can’t help but think about the mistakes I never got to begin I could look back behind me and see it all as wasted time And for the sake of a life yours was worth so much more than mine And for the hours we lost I don’t know how I could ever leave you behind I had a dream that I could find a way to see you through the stars I chased the moon only to realize how truly far apart we are Don’t stop, don’t wait I wouldn’t hesitate to do it all over again But I can’t help but think about the way I didn’t want any of this to happen I could look back behind me and see it all as wasted time And for the sake of a life yours was worth so much more than mine And for the hours we lost I don’t know how I could ever leave you behind But I don’t even know anymore And I don’t even know what for I don’t even know anymore

Isn’t this the part where I watch you walk away Or is this the part where I run after you and beg you to stay But then you looked at me and said you just knew I didn’t agree when you told me it wasn’t me, it was you Say it to me, say it to me, say it to me that I’m the one you choose I could be the one to leave but right now my feet are glued Maybe I’ll be, maybe I’ll be, maybe I’ll be wiser, you’ll see But can’t you see that I’ve got nothing left to lose So baby… CHORUS Never let me go, never let me go, don’t ever let me go (Until you can tell me you don’t want me anymore) x4 What did you do to make me, oh, so confused I guess it’s romantic how I feel so much like a fool Maybe I should have stood my ground while you drew the line But I guess it’s more romantic to watch you leave me behind Say it to me, say it to me, say it to me that I’m the one you knew Would come along to make you feel ready to move Maybe I’ll be, maybe I’ll be, maybe I’ll be the one to make you see Because at the end of the day I want nothing else but you CHORUS [instrumental] Don’t ever let me go (‘Till you can tell me you don’t want me anymore) CHORUS

Pretend 03:31
Let’s play a game on this patterned swing Where our lives are buried in fortune and fame Let’s say that blame is nothing but a tired scheme And they’ve shot us to death They’ve shot us to death But we’re still alive And the night is where we left it And the starting line is where we’ve found our chance to survive Second lives and now we’re 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 We’re on the mend But we’re tired of struggling to find purchase to climb To the top of the lonely peak Where we’ve stepped on each other only to be King of a hill that no one can see Impatiently wanting everything But one faulty step and we’re back to the beginning CHORUS

Fading Out 04:20
So do I throw it all away or just accept that I’m shattered All for a heavy price to pay to realize it never mattered What choice do I make except every single step I take No vow did I mean to break Why indecision is so hard to fake CHORUS You’re fading out You’re fading out Rising vapor clouds out of reach I tried so hard to be someone my father would love finally Oh, but captivity makes a caged bird look out longingly CHORUS Where were you when I was falling Where were you when I was calling out for help You never showed Where were you when I was bleeding When my proof of hope was fleeing out the door And left me all alone CHORUS
