Around here
We name the strays
We let them into our hearts
Give them a place to stay
Like Jesus did
Or so you read
You gotta love everyone
Till they're dead
And it's what I've been telling you all along
I want you to know
I need you to know
And I know we're both tired of making mistakes
And falling has become our middle name
I know we just wanna be rescued some days
We don't want to become some kind of broken cliché
Around here
We keep on messing up
We drag our egos around
In a beggar's cup
'Cause we all been taught
From such an early age
To build a wall around our hearts
So that thing will never break
And I know we're both tired of making mistakes
And disaster has become our middle name
I know we just wanna be resting some days
With the stolen eyes of love
That we carefully hide away
I remember what song was playing that day on the radio
As two speeding cars slow motion collided behind
We promised ourselves we'd never go silent again
We laid there for hours together and cried
And I know we're both tired of making mistakes
And disaster disaster's become our middle name
I know we just wanna be rescued some days
With the stolen eyes of love
That we carefully hide away
