Wake me if you can
I don’t want to dream.
Nothing I can say
Will wipe this clean.
The cracks are running deep
Beneath my feet.
I’m losing what I thought
I was meant to keep.
Chorus:
I still love you
Like no one’s loved you.
You are irreplaceable.
I still need to
Hear it from you.
I am not invisible.
I want to reach inside
And touch the ache.
Cut it out of me
And stop this break.
The truth is losing ground
Before my eyes.
I cannot find the words
To make it right.
Chorus:
I still love you
Like no one’s loved you.
You are irreplaceable.
I still need to
Hear it from you.
I am not invisible.
I can’t breathe
Without this pain.
I’ll promise anything
To make it change.
Let me crawl inside
Someone else’s skin.
I might self-destruct
If you don’t let me in.
Chorus:
I still love you
Like no one’s loved you.
You are irreplaceable.
I still need to
Hear it from you.
I am not invisible.

Down
Fear locks you down with a cold kiss;
Grief is a landmine waiting to shatter you;
Ice is the strength that you swallow down;
It swallows you down.
Barren the view out your window;
Cover your head with ashes and mourn for it;
Once you believed you could stand your ground;
'Til it swallowed you down.
Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.
Hollow the words that fall from you;
Always surprised anyone hears you now;
Rage is the current that drags you down;
It swallows you down.
Lifeless the heart that beats in you;
Keeping your silence lest you begin to scream;
Dark are the days when the lost are found;
And they swallow you down.
Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.
Bridge:
Heaven help you
All alone
It's so much easier
To just let go
Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.
Everyone's saying oh it's such a shame;
You are going down.
Grief is a landmine waiting to shatter you;
Ice is the strength that you swallow down;
It swallows you down.
Barren the view out your window;
Cover your head with ashes and mourn for it;
Once you believed you could stand your ground;
'Til it swallowed you down.
Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.
Hollow the words that fall from you;
Always surprised anyone hears you now;
Rage is the current that drags you down;
It swallows you down.
Lifeless the heart that beats in you;
Keeping your silence lest you begin to scream;
Dark are the days when the lost are found;
And they swallow you down.
Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.
Bridge:
Heaven help you
All alone
It's so much easier
To just let go
Chorus:
And the heavens are crying but you remain dry;
Cold from the inside;
And everyone's saying it's such a shame;
You are going down.
Everyone's saying oh it's such a shame;
You are going down.

Letting Go
Couldn't you see that I
wouldn't believe your lies?
How could you not know
I would have to let you go.
Couldn't you hear in me
all that I refuse to be?
How could you miss the truth
that I am not like you.
Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.
Couldn't you see me?
How you leave me bleeding?
How can you justify
all the wounds you leave behind.
Couldn't you hear your lies?
Your power to paralyze?
Like you think you have the right
to take over me tonight.
Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.
Bridge:
I love you; I hate you;
I'm torn in between.
You love nothing more than
to cause me misery.
I wanted to save you;
eyes open now I can see.
You don't want salvation
and holding you hurts me.
I can't hold on to you.
Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.
I can't hold on to you.
I can't hold on to you.
wouldn't believe your lies?
How could you not know
I would have to let you go.
Couldn't you hear in me
all that I refuse to be?
How could you miss the truth
that I am not like you.
Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.
Couldn't you see me?
How you leave me bleeding?
How can you justify
all the wounds you leave behind.
Couldn't you hear your lies?
Your power to paralyze?
Like you think you have the right
to take over me tonight.
Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.
Bridge:
I love you; I hate you;
I'm torn in between.
You love nothing more than
to cause me misery.
I wanted to save you;
eyes open now I can see.
You don't want salvation
and holding you hurts me.
I can't hold on to you.
Chorus:
So cold, so bitter,
so wrapped up in yourself.
So lost, so broken
you can't see anyone else.
Heartless, jaded,
you know you live to be cruel.
And I know now
I can't hold on to you.
I can't hold on to you.
I can't hold on to you.

Want
I can say with truth;
I never saw this coming.
I can say to you;
I should have started running.
You can make me want
When I know better.
You can make me hurt
For what I cannot have.
Chorus:
I close my eyes and see you;
I breathe and taste you in my mouth;
I ache for everything that is you;
And I cannot do without.
I am far too proud to beg;
If you would listen.
Words are less than what is said;
I can’t get over this.
You smile and everything fades;
I can’t escape it.
You look like you’ve just got it made
When all I want is you.
Chorus:
I close my eyes and see you;
I breathe and taste you in my mouth;
I ache for everything that is you;
And I cannot do without.
Bridge:
How can you be the air to me?
How can you make it hurt to breathe?
How can I make you stop and see
Me?
Chorus:
I close my eyes and see you;
I breathe and taste you in my mouth;
I ache for everything that is you;
And I cannot do without.
I never saw this coming.
I can say to you;
I should have started running.
You can make me want
When I know better.
You can make me hurt
For what I cannot have.
Chorus:
I close my eyes and see you;
I breathe and taste you in my mouth;
I ache for everything that is you;
And I cannot do without.
I am far too proud to beg;
If you would listen.
Words are less than what is said;
I can’t get over this.
You smile and everything fades;
I can’t escape it.
You look like you’ve just got it made
When all I want is you.
Chorus:
I close my eyes and see you;
I breathe and taste you in my mouth;
I ache for everything that is you;
And I cannot do without.
Bridge:
How can you be the air to me?
How can you make it hurt to breathe?
How can I make you stop and see
Me?
Chorus:
I close my eyes and see you;
I breathe and taste you in my mouth;
I ache for everything that is you;
And I cannot do without.
