A man in the dark With his heart out of place Cars trying hard Catch the fall, pull the brakes Still you can hear me I am calling out your name Break through the bars Through the walls of your maze Deep down in the dark, dark I found you Deep down in the dark, dark I found you I found your heart I found your heart I found your heart Deep down in the dark, dark I found you I found your heart Still you can hear me I am calling out your name Break through the bars Through the walls of your maze Deep down in the dark, dark I found you Deep down in the dark, dark I found you I found your heart I found your heart Deep down in the dark, dark I found you I found your heart Deep down in the dark, dark I found you I found your heart

Hey I found a whistle that hangs like a charm, And when my noose is tied I could blow it And fall down into your arms 15 centuries of dissolution and grief, To return a yellow trickster and a thief Hey I found a whistle that works every time That's when the trail escapes to nowhere, And the flood erases the crime Such conviction, To paint all the wall with the blood Of the young and the faithful and the good Yeah I found a whistle as thin as a sheet To split the dumbness of a vision Between asleep and a sleep Tiny axes Repeatedly raising the flag All ignored, real emotion's such a drag Hey I've got a pistol that's aimed at your heart And on dark nights when the moon is right I could show you The head attached with a scarf Aerophane sorceress, at home obeying the fates When it's gone, has it gone all the way? This time Found a whistle That works every time Yeah, I found a whistle That works Hangs like a charm 'round my neck Found a whistle That works every time Yeah, I found a whistle That works Closes my mind every time A whistle, I've got it! I've got it! This time.

There's a thousand reasons this won't work I can count the ways we'll crash and burn There's a thousand reasons not to try But is one enough to change your mind? There's a hundred ways to break your heart But I'll never know if we don't start There's a hundred signs to let you go But is one enough to hold me close? 'Cause life is full of wasted moments that felt right And don't we have enough for us to dive right in? Even if we don't know how this ends There's a million chances for mistakes That we both can't promise not to make There's a million doubts that you might have But is a spark enough to not hold back? 'Cause life is full of wasted moments that felt right And don't we have enough for us to dive right in? Even if we don't know how this ends Even if we don't know how this ends There's a thousand reasons this won't work I can count the ways we'll crash and burn There's a thousand reasons not to try But is one enough to change your mind?

Let down my guard today You took my heart away Now I'm alone on a bench made for two Clutching this red balloon Filled up with thoughts of you Open my hand and it pressed to the sky of blue This is a call for freedom I'm too scared, too scared of Letting my mind start to reason And hope that you care for me Get my heart off my sleeve, 'cause loving you could be the death of me Now that my thoughts are sane Hopped on a northbound plane Off to a city that's absent of you Something that caught my eye Passing through painted skies Just out my window, a small red balloon This is a call for freedom I'm too scared, too scared of Letting my mind start to reason And hope that you care for me Get my heart off my sleeve, 'cause loving you could be the death of me I'll take my heart, I'll take my mind, I'll take my eyes off you I'm too scared, I'm too scared I'll take my heart, I'll take my mind, I'll take my eyes off you Can't hope that you care for me Get my heart off my sleeve, 'cause loving you Could be the death of me

Frozen lake Frozen tears Frozen hope Frozen years Life came slowly to a stall, a stall 'Cause you've been paralyzed by all you want Feeling lifeless and cold Always coming up a little short Don't Lay Down Your life's not over Gotta stand Your ground If your heart's still beating then It's worth fighting for Even when you're bleeding You're worth fighting for Quiet mouth Empty eyes Pretty face all disguised So disappointed in the years She's tried Now taking solace In the tears she cries Feeling helpless and weak Letting failure have a voice to speak Don't Lay Down Your life's not over Gotta stand your ground If your heart's still beating then It's worth Fighting for Even when you're bleeding You're worth fighting for There's a peace in the morning Of starting new So when you hear hope calling See it through See it through See it through Don't Lay Down Your life's not over Gotta stand your ground If your heart's still beating then It's worth Fighting for Even when you're bleeding You're worth fighting for You're worth fighting for You're worth fighting for

I couldn't even reach the sink To brush my teeth The heater was broke in the winter We wore long sleeves We'd race from the front to the back door in under 3 seconds We didn't have much back then, but I thought it was heaven There were pictures of us on the wall And my momma complained that the kitchen was small You could hear the TV down the hall Didn't have to go far if I needed to talk I'm a million miles away tonight But I can walk through that house If I just close my eyes It was only 1200 square feet It wasn't much But it was enough for me Mom and dad got separate places; it didn't work out Lawyers and real estate agents, and tears on the couch My new room was bigger and nicer; it smelled like new paint But I'd lay awake in the darkness and remember those days There were pictures of us on the wall And my momma complained that the kitchen was small You could hear the TV down the hall Didn't have to go far if I needed to talk I'm a million miles away tonight But I can walk through that house If I just close my eyes It was only 1200 square feet It wasn't much But it was enough for me I want to go back Want to go back Want to go back I want to go back Want to go back Want to go back There were pictures of us on the wall And my momma complained that the kitchen was small You could hear the TV down the hall Didn't have to go far if I needed to talk I'm a million miles away tonight But I can walk through that house If I just close my eyes It was only 1200 square feet It wasn't much But it was enough for me
