Let's leave this place behind
When we finally decide
What is gonna take
to make you feel alive (feel alive)
What's it gonna take
yo open up your eyes
To open up your eyes

It's time to get out of this town
It's haunting (this presence)
It still holds you down
Be blessed and move foreward
Silent and sound

These words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Letting go of each other, we're still holding tight

All these words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Are we wasting our time? Are you still holding tight?

It was only fair
To look to the sky
To breathe in the air
To wade in the shallows
With empty hands, no sense of pride
Would you give up if we've all given up?
Till the east was ours,
we drew the lines that divide
Stapled these badges of pain to our sides
To our sides

We've all had our enemies
We're leaving the past behind
I don't feel like I'm losing sleep
I know you can see it in my eyes
We've all had our enemies
We're leaving the past behind
I don't feel like I'm losing sleep
I know you can see it in my eyes

You can see it in my eyes
You can see it in my eyes

These words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Letting go of each other, we're still holding tight

All these words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Are we wasting our time? Are you still holding tight?

I'll leave my heart there, by your bedside
If you swear that your eyes won't stray
To be honest, open, and hoping,
to find the words to say
I'll leave my heart there, by your bedside
If you swear that your eyes won't stray
And honestly, honestly
I only let go for the sake of you
