There are battles to be won and they rage within our hearts

They crash in like waves as we try to keep our heads high

They form us and break us and they surely leave their mark

And its the decisions that we make that sometimes break a heart

That's when people you know turn into someone you knew

As we all strive for a better life promises made but it's basically lying

And that's when we all have to recognize the obvious powers of honesty

And how disillusioning a normal life can be but it makes us come to terms

With who we really are and where we wanna be

We all need words to live by and someone who can make us feel alive

The stories our mothers told and the few things that we cannot hold

We cannot hold our breath long enough to die

I ran away from a city that died and ran away

From a love run dry. And nothing has kept me there...

My fate had been chosen

I ran away from a city that died and ran away

From a girl that cries. And nothing has kept me there.

My fate had been chosen

I wish i couldn't tell a lie

A heart so pure like a babies cry

Just one more look at my fathers eyes

I fill my empty heart with you

I don't need so much to stay alive

Just a bed, a room, and someone to kiss goodnight

These nights i cannot sleep i fill my heart with you

I don't need so much to stay alive

Just a bed, a room, and someone to kiss goodnight

These nights i cannot sleep i fill my heart with you

The stories our mothers told and the few things that we cannot hold

we cannot hold our breath long enough to die

we don't choose death it chooses us

We don't look back, we take the ride

I don't need so much to stay alive

a bed, a room, and someone to kiss goodnight

To kiss goodnight to kiss goodnight

to kiss goodnight

Erase these chapters from your past

Sweet dreams die hard

Wipe away these bitter tears from my face

All our hopes die last

Erase these chapters from your past

Wipe away these bitter tears from my face

All our hopes die last

So take these splinters of my broken past

From my trembling hands

Cuz we cannot hold our breath long enough to die

we cannot hold our breath long enough to die
