We're standing in the silence on a carpet of a broken glass between our shoes

Every word feels like a bullet and I don't know which one to choose

Your eyes are tired oceans, but you won't let the tidal wave break through

And I'm holding on to phantom fences when I should be reaching for you

We're two hearts trapped in a rusted cage, both too stubborn to turn, turn a single simple page

The cost of this war is a future we swore we'd keep

But we're gambling with moments when we should be fast asleep

If I lay my pride down, will you meet me halfway

Or will you let me stand here until the whole world turns gray

We're bleeding love, but we hide the wounds deep inside

Baby, we're sad, too proud to be alive in this cold, empty light

And I don't wanna lose us tonight

But we're both terrified to lay our pride down

I remember late July sunsets when your hand felt like a guarantee

Now we're vis-trangers sleeping in the shadow of a memory

I could beg you for the grace note, but I'm been choking on the static in the air

And you're hiding all your honesty in the quiet that proves you still care

All the map to your heart is just crumpled paper on the floor

And neither of us will bend to pick it up anymore

We're two mirrors turned away, refusing to reflect the damage of the day

The cost of this war is a future we swore we'd keep

But we're gambling with moments when we should be fast asleep

If I lay my pride down, will you meet me halfway

Or will you let me stand here until the whole world turns gray

We're bleeding love, but we hide the wounds deep inside

Baby, we're sad, too proud to be alive in this cold, empty light

And I don't wanna lose us tonight

But we're both terrified to lay our pride down

What if you reach first and I let my guard fall

Like a crumbling wall, would the cracks in our foundations finally mend them all

Or are we just fire that's burned the whole thing down

A love story waiting for its epitaph in this silent town

It's not that we can't fix it, it's that we lose the fight

If I lay my pride down, would you finally open the door

Or would you let me slip away like I was never yours before

We're drowning slow in a war we can't survive

Baby, we're too proud, but I still believe in us tonight

But the five steps, do you feel like you're mine

And neither of us will move a single inch

Thanks for watching
