Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
[Verse 2]
I can feel the night beginning
Separate me from the living
Understanding me after all I've seen
Piecing every thought together
Find the words to make me better
If I only knew how to pull myself apart
[Verse 3]
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
All that I'm wanted for
Although I wanted more
Lock the last open door—My ghosts are gaining on me
[Verse 4]
I believe that dreams are sacred
Take my darkest fears and play them
Like a lullaby, like a reason why
Like a play of my obsessions
Make me understand the lesson
So I'll find myself, so I won't be lost again
[Verse 5]
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
All that I'm wanted for
Although I wanted more
Lock the last open door—My ghosts are gaining on me
[Verse 6]
Guess I thought I'd have to change the world
To make you see me
To be the one
I could have run forever
But how far would I have come
Without mourning your love?
[Verse 7]
All that I'm living for
All that I'm dying for
All that I can't ignore alone at night
All that I'm wanted for
Although I wanted more
Lock the last open door—My ghosts are gaining on me
[Verse 8]
Should it hurt to love you?
Should I feel like I do?
Should I lock the last open door
My ghosts are gaining on me
