As the world comes crashing down on your face
I'll be here to give you a warm embrace
That's where you'll find me
You won't have to chase

Caught in a riptide
Lost between my head and my heart
Hair disheveled and a wounded pride
All these roads lead me back to the start

Holding my breath
And count to ten
My heart left me by a quiet death
Just to feel alive, once again.

The world is an unfair place
Much to my dismay
The humans lack grace
We didn't write the rules
It just happens that way

On nights like these
I thought that I was doing fine
Just when I could love again
It's a pity, you're not mine

On nights like these
I wish to hear your voice  
Yet, I couldn't
Not by choice

The past's been written
And the ink ran dry
The future's uncertain
Time's going to flash past us
In the blink of an eye

Till our love runs out
There's nothing you can ever doubt

Till our faith runs dry
My actions will not lie

Till our hope fades into nothing
It's love, not war we're making

So many wasted nights
Of endless fights
Unspoken words
Need I say more
We're no longer what we used to be before

Your eyes are filled with lies
I just realised
I'm not complaining
You're just a lesson I'm learning

Please believe me
It's all you can say
Just to make me stay
This isn't easy
While I just want to be free
