Movements - One Win Choice

I've been staring at the world from a tightrope Worried sick but I'm hanging on to high hopes And I'm swinging hard, always hoping that I strike gold But you walk by and it's like you've got your eyes closed And I don't mean to intrude But I'm dying to reach you So can I try to be somebody you could love? I don't know if I could ever measure up And you took my breath like water in my lungs But I would die to be somebody you could love Oh I never know just what to say, so I keep shut It's like I'm always too afraid I'm gonna freeze up And if I try too hard, then it's too much But if I don't start soon, I'm gonna lose touch It's just the way you give me too much to choose from And I don't mean to intrude But I'm dying to reach you So can I try to be somebody you could love? I don't know if I could ever measure up But you took my breath like water in my lungs And I would die to be somebody you could love Oh Oh Don't remind me I could never be enough Stay beside me 'cause I only want your love Don't remind me I could never be enough Stay beside me 'cause I only want your love I've been staring at the world from a tightrope Worried sick but I'm hanging on to high hopes So can I try to be somebody you could love? I don't know if I could ever measure up But you took my breath like water in my lungs And I would die to be somebody you could love Oh Oh Yeah, you took my breath like water in my lungs And I would die to be somebody you could love

Soft skin, hard stare Feels wrong but all's fair I try but I can't seem to look away and you don't care Instead you meet my steady gaze and we go from there Stay up all night Real love for the first time And I can't tell if this is all a dream or if I'm really here But as long as I can feel you, I don't really care I don't really care Can we pretend like it's just you and me? I wanna act like I can feel something And you don't have to give it back to me 'Cause I can't promise much of anything I see in shades of grey, I'm going blind again But when it comes to you, my world is red I see in shades of grey, losing my mind again But when it comes to you, my world is deep red Cold skin all the time Idle hands so you hold mine You say it helps with keeping you together and you hold tight I'm losing feeling in my fingers but I don't mind Stay up all night Real love for the first time And I can't tell if this is all a dream or if I'm really here But as long as I can feel you, I don't really care I don't really care Can we pretend like it's just you and me? I wanna act like I can feel something And you don't have to give it back to me 'Cause I can't promise much of anything I see in shades of grey, I'm going blind again But when it comes to you, my world is red I see in shades of grey, losing my mind again But when it comes to you, my world is deep red Dive into you (And open the blinds) Take all of me (You become my guide) Make me brand new (To live through your eyes) So I can finally sleep (Deep red at sunrise) I see in shades of grey and I'm going blind I'm dreaming in the day, I've lost my mind Am I asleep again? I can't clear my head 'Cause when it comes to you, my world is red My world is red My world is

The dead of summer But it feels cold out 'Cause something's missing Inside your bones now Keep talking to her because you need it A little quiet, somewhat defeated There's an emptiness about this It's your phantom It's your absence When you find yourself in the dark for too long And you try to find the light But the right road looks wrong When you find yourself in the dark for too long You fall in love with darkness itself If you gotta walk through hell It won't be without my help The waters getting too high Lost in the swell I can see it in your eyes You've tried too many times You're looking for a way out But you're still alive You gotta walk through hell It won't be without my help I know you're wishing You'd feel her presence again The way that you did on The morning she left You need a visit You feel the weight on your bed But there's no silhouette So you're crying again When you find yourself in the dark for too long You fall in love with darkness itself If you gotta walk through hell It won't be without my help The waters getting too high Lost in the swell I can see it in your eyes You've tried too many times You're looking for a way out But you're still alive You gotta walk through hell It won't be without my help It's an absence that goes deeper than flesh There's no sadness worse than mourning a death It's an absence that goes deeper than flesh There's no sadness worse than mourning a death If you gotta walk through hell It won't be without my help The waters getting too high Lost in the swell I can see it in your eyes You've tried too many times You're looking for a way out But you're still alive You gotta walk through hell It won't be without my help You gotta walk through hell It won't be without my help

Is it funny or is it just sad, the way life pulls in different directions? How you can want something so fucking bad, the dissonance, the disconnection can eat you alive inside. There's a canyon between consistency and complacency, but in so many ways, they all look the same. Am i worried, or dead fucking scared to fall prey to a life of convention. The day in, the day out. The routines set in and the alarm clock wins, the shining of shoes and boredom begins... To eat you alive inside. This fabrics failing. Just let it go. Just let it burn. The fabrics failed me, the sand is gone from the hour glass. So what can you tell me, that you haven't told me in the past. I've opened my eyes, flooded my mind, stepped in the van, the miles, the time, lived a life of a thousand lives. We're out of step, out of line, these hollow threads we're tied behind, Cut these strings, let it die. Cut these strings. Release me.

I'm not throwing anchors anywhere My back's not up against Any fucking wall We're all told "We've got a plan for you" We're all shown the doors we should walk through We're all taught this world will define you... I swear to the skies, To these streets where My allegiance lies It's to you, It's to me, It's to us all, the people I know we could be. Not to any flag or government. We still Walk down the paths that they've carved for us Speak in the language they taught to us Breathe in the poisons they force on us Believe in the visions they dreamt for us Nearly every outlet, Nearly every teacher Speaks to our "great divide" An illusion, it's an illusion They'll use anything To disarm you To make you feel your dead inside, Insignificant, all alone We will define, we'll redefine We will teach and we will learn.
