Not Alone

We used to sing a song of innocence But then I found out what its meaning was It stripped away the way I felt inside And in a moment I knew something died How could I hold up all the heroes now? It's never the heroines that let us down People always take advantage of The ones whose kindness is beyond their love You break it, I take it Why am I always the one who will take you home? You break it, I take it Why am I always the one who will take you home? I used to sing with all the other boys Playing chords instead of holding toys The other day I sat within a room A girl I barely knew, she played our tune She showed me how we put our feelings down And in that moment turned my life around We'd played the music wrong in every town But somehow people heard our special sound You think no one knows 'Bout the darkness that you feel You're not alone I know your mind, I know it's real You think no one knows 'Bout the darkness that you feel You're not alone I know your mind, I know it's real We need a break from this kind of heartache From this kind of heartache, from this kind of heartache Know when it aches, it is only heartbreak We need a break from this kind of heartache You know when it aches, it is kind of heartache Now we sit and share the smaller floor Holding court instead of holding chords We raise our glasses in remembrance When only yesterday we took our chance How can I help you to complete your song If all I do is get the meaning wrong? Anxiety can only kill a man If he always turns away the helping hand You think no one knows 'Bout the darkness that you feel You're not alone I know your mind, I know it's real We need a break from this kind of heartache All the rest is noise We need a break from this kind of heartache Get together I still, I still, I still long for your voice Get together, get together, get together It holds me, I, holds me, I, holds me, I have no choice All the rest is noise Get together, get together, get together We need a break from this kind of heartache
