[Verse 1]
I dont want to feel helpless;
Casting shadows from the glow of my eyes.
I hope the mirror can shed a little light.

I need a measure of meaning,
To weave the lace of your heart.
Youve been living a lie right from the start.

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to scratch at the surface;
Want to live with a purpose.
I dont know that Ive ever felt so clever.

[Chorus]
If you take my hand,
You could fall into the deep end.
Take my grace and pride
Watch em burn until the fire dies.

[Verse 2]
I dont want to feel lonesome;
Nor dependent on the bite of your buzz.
I lost my focus at the moment that you were more than just a blur in my mind.

But I won't wont live in your pocket,
Nor a lock-box under your bed.
Lord, I thought I would never love again.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I want to scratch at the surface;
Want to live with a purpose.
I dont know that Ive ever felt so clever.

Oh, I want to know, was it worth it to
Kill a garden, in perfect bloom?
Im holding the vine that you set fire to.

[Chorus 2]
If you take my hand,
You could fall into the deep end.
Take my grace and pride
Watch em burn until the fire dies.

< bridge>
As I watch the sea pull away from me
So you are, my love, as the stars are fixed* above.
Our hope, glass in a kaleidoscope;
To dust, of all that I had set in stone.

[Chorus 3]
Take my hand,
And youll fall into the deep end.
Take my grace and pride
Let em burn until the fire dies.
