Lyrics

Lying awake
You're next to me
Keeping my breath matched to yours in sympathy
It's the least I can do
After all I've done
But whenever I try to fix things the words just don't come
So I tie myself down
I'm dreaming up ways just to stop me
Cause it won't be long 'til you've found
I am my own worst enemy
Cause I don't wanna be
Held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island then
I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself
At your mercy
It's quiet again
If you only knew
How much you mean to me
And how much I'd go through
Yeah, I tie myself down
I'm dreaming up ways just to stop me
Cause it won't be long 'til you've found
I am my own worst enemy
Cause I don't wanna be
Held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island then
I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself
At your mercy
Cause I don't wanna be
Held responsible
We're over our heads
But this love runs deep
I'd dive to the bottom for you
Some promises are made to keep
Yeah, I'm not just passing through
So don't let this olive branch get torn in two, in two
Cause I don't wanna be
Held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island then
I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself
At your mercy
Cause I don't wanna be
Held responsible
For doing damage or destroying something beautiful
If you're an island then
I'm your refugee
I'm throwing myself
At your mercy
I'm at your mercy
