Settle down, take deep breaths, and let it all out

In a moment it will have passed

Turn and face the waves, and feel the cold against your skin

You know, sometimes you'll never win

I can hear it now, I hear these walls come crashing down

Piece by piece, it falls on broken ground

So we break, and then you choke

It's how I hurt those I love the most

Then we wait, and at once, you take me in

It's the strain that breeds this loss

But it's the only thing we've got

All we've ever known

We can take the weight

I am miles away, livin' in a long-forgotten place

The light fades more and more by the day

So can you hear it now? Can you hear these walls come crashing down?

Piece by piece, it falls on broken ground

So we break, and then you choke

It's how I hurt those I love the most

Then we wait, and at once, you take me in

It's the strain that breeds this loss

But it's the only thing we've got

All we've ever known

We can take the weight

And so we break, and then you choke

It's how I hurt those I love the most

And then we wait, and at once you take me in

It's the strain that breeds this loss

But it's the only thing we've got

All we've ever known

We can take the weight
