Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Goin' out the way I always do
Calling out your name
Trying not to hate myself
For getting in the middle
And shining every light upon it
[Verse 2]
Still, I miss the way you hold me close
In a cold wind
I saw you in our room, staring at the light
I've been up all night
But it's life and we've been living it
Still I wanna celebrate
Love
High
[Verse 3]
I've been rolling on the sixteen
I can die on the floor
I've been shackled and delivered, yeah
There's a girl out there with silence in her eyes
The truth is in the dark
[Verse 4]
But I see you, I'm comin' in view
Yeah, I need you, I'm comin' in two
In view
[Verse 5]
Ain't no wind that I can feel in the weight of the wind
In the fleeting rain
Turn around and break my heart, and look at it and say
How you broke away
[Chorus]
Ain't no way to elevate to another line
With nowhere to go
Ain't no chains to hold you in
To hold you to, to losing you
[Verse 6]
Hiding from an enemy
Something inside me dies
It's hard seein' clear these days
With darkness on my mind
So I stare into an ocean floor
And I wonder where I once was
Was I falling through the air tonight?
Did I crumble into your arms?
Is this love?
Are you sure?
Is it something
You can control?
[Verse 7]
I'm retired
I'm in chains
I'm in love
I'm in pain
[Verse 8]
All these changes everywhere
Just go ahead and take my hand
And hold me close, don't let me go
Try to understand
I believe in all the power
In doing what we can do
We can learn to try to make it through
Come out the other side
[Verse 9]
And I see it, it all comin' in view
How do we decide what we can do?
I don't read your mind, can we choose?
