  • On the plane to Amsterdam
  • I left the carnage on the ground
  • In your seat was emptiness
  • So heavy we could barely ride it down
  • And every color since I walked away
  • Looks to me like every shade of wrong
  • But now I'm on the way back
  • Chasing something better
  • And it's turning me around
  • Baby if you still care
  • If there's still a burning ember
  • I'm ready to surrender now
  • The illness of my galaxy
  • Made you revolve around my world
  • But I cast myself as the brightest star
  • Falling further from the girl
  • All the things I thought were made of gold
  • Turned out to be every shade of wrong
  • [Chorus]
  • I left the promise bleeding
  • Cold and barely breathing
  • Can you still hold on
  • [Chorus]
  • Ready to surrender
  • I'm ready to surrender
 
  • Welcome to the world, oh yeah
  • A very unusual place
  • Don't let that scare you
  • Welcome to the world, oh yeah
  • It's in your face
  • It's all around you
  • Well it can't go on and on forever
  • So let it go
  • And hold on tight
  • It's all so new
  • Yeah you're so green
  • But I'll cover you
  • So enjoy the view
  • Yeah you're so green
  • Until you balance on the earth to find that love
  • Surrounds you
  • Welcome to the world, oh yeah
  • It's not your typical space
  • Just let it hold you
  • Welcome to the world, oh yeah
  • Don't quit the race
  • Let it unfold you
  • [Pre-Chorus]
  • [Chorus]
  • Anywhere you go
  • I'm gonna be one step behind you
  • You may not know
  • But I'll be there
  • Welcome to the human race
  • It's a very unusual place
  • But that's what makes it wonderful
  • Now your world has just begun
  • You're a very unusual one
  • And that's what makes you beautiful
  • Well it can't go on and on and on forever
  • So let it go
  • It will go on and on and on forever
  • When you go
  • So hold on
  • Hold on
  • Welcome to the world oh yeah
  • [Repeat]
 
  • She's not like anyone else
  • You wonder why she captured
  • You like a firefly
  • And makes you shine like you never could alone
  • And tell me
  • Can you see her shining
  • Through a crowded room
  • Where she's the view
  • And maybe
  • She'll embrace your innocence maybe
  • She gets high but hates those cigarettes
  • She speaks and breaks your intellect
  • And she's allowed to change her mind
  • Just you try to stop her yeah
  • [Pre-Chorus]
  • And so it is
  • The same you've not been since
  • One hit and you were lit up like a firefly
  • Be careful what you wish
  • She tells stories like a painter, yeah
  • With colorful words that I don't always understand
  • But it always sounds like somewhere better than here
  • Yeah, everywhere is better with her
  • [Pre-Chorus]
  • [Chorus]
  • She has a subtle way
  • Of making you forget your darkness
  • Behind some clever conversation
  • No finer heart, could ever beat for you
  • [Pre-Chorus]
  • [Chorus]
  • [Chorus]
 
  • On the road to safe
  • I kinda tripped along the way
  • It just seemed like a nasty hassle
  • The path was greener on the one less traveled
  • That's where I remained
  • People so high they think
  • I can't hear the whispers
  • I can see it falling off their face
  • Their trying to shoot down my plane of grace
  • It seems like it's already hard enough
  • But the paint on me is beginning to dry
  • And it's not what I wanted to be
  • The weight on me
  • Is Hanging on to a weary angel
  • So tell me what it is about me
  • Where did everybody go without me
  • So, I like to fantasize
  • And watch the sunrise like it's a big surprise
  • Life moves and I stopped to taste it
  • I drank it up till it left me wasted
  • But my rains have bled
  • A softer red
  • Oh you should see the world inside my head
  • You can shackle me away
  • And try to wrap around my dreamer
  • I feel better when I paint my days
  • With purple seas
  • And left out grays
  • Strange is just a different point of view
  • But the paint on me is starting to dry
  • And it's not what I wanted to be
  • The weight on me
  • Is holding onto a weary angel
  • [Chorus]
  • I feel better when I paint my days
  • With purple seas
  • And left out grays
  • Strange is just a different point of view
  • But the pain on me is beginning to dry
  • And it's not what I want it to be
  • So wait on me
  • Wait on me
  • [Chorus]
  • You should see
 
  • I don't mind you comin' here
  • And wastin' all my time
  • 'Cause when you're standin' oh so near
  • I kinda lose my mind
  • It's not the perfume that you wear
  • It's not the ribbons in your hair
  • I don't mind you comin' here
  • And wastin' all my time
  • I don't mind you hangin' out
  • And talkin' in your sleep
  • It doesn't matter where you've been
  • As long as it was deep, yeah
  • You always knew to wear it well
  • And you look so fancy I can tell
  • I don't mind you hangin' out
  • And talkin' in your sleep
  • I guess you're just what I needed
  • (Just what I needed)
  • I needed someone to feed
  • I guess you're just what I needed
  • (Just what I needed)
  • I needed someone to bleed
  • [Verse 1]
  • [Chorus]
  • Yeah, so bleed me
  • You're just what I needed
  • You're just what I needed
 
  • Tell me everything that's on your mind
  • Tell me what the trouble is
  • And I'll make some time
  • You never seem to worry
  • About the things that you don't understand
  • Your cellophane window-pane keeps the world
  • From coming in
  • It's all about the love
  • It's everything you've been thinking of
  • It's all about the love
  • So here's to you and here's to something new
  • Give it up for love
  • Cause it'll be enough
  • For you
  • Show me everything you want to show
  • Tell me what the puzzle is
  • And where the pieces go
  • Candlelight, Barry White and candy-apple
  • Screw top wine
  • Laughing like the world won't pay us no mind
  • [Chorus]
  • Slow down
  • Have you looked at me lately
  • I've been standing around here waiting
  • Isn't it so fascinating
  • When loves, in love, with you
  • [Chorus]
  • [Chorus]
 
  • Well if you're wondering
  • Where I've been all evening
  • If you think that I've drifted off
  • Without leavin' here I've finally found the answers
  • Don't worry, I'm not lost
  • I'm in the moment
  • The one where nothing matters
  • And everything's alright
  • I'm seeing things so clearly now
  • And you're the reason why
  • I'm in the moment
  • And I've alive
  • I'm alive
  • I've been restless but you have been so patient
  • Well I carelessly wasted my time
  • But you left the door open
  • And you kept the light on
  • You waited for me to arrive
  • [Chorus]
  • Well I've finally come around
  • And now I see
  • Every road has taken me
  • Where I wanna be
  • I wanna be
  • Chorus
  • I'm alive
  • [Repeat 3x]
 
  • Just turn around
  • Turn away from me
  • Before I lose my head
  • Just turn around
  • But remember me
  • And how you left me dead inside
  • We were
  • Gonna be different
  • Now where did those
  • Dreamers go
  • I was the one who would paint the stars
  • And watch you while you slept
  • You were the one who held my heart
  • And smiled as it leapt inside
  • We were
  • Gonna be different
  • Now where did those
  • Dreamers go
  • Well I guess they died
  • We got older
  • And when you lied
  • Didn't have to
  • I don't know where I should go from here
  • Cause I never expected this of us
  • I'm only hanging on by a string
  • I don't know anything anymore
  • [Chorus]
  • [Chorus]
  • You didn't have to
  • Didn't have to
 
  • Diggin' in for another day
  • Carrying on in my own
  • But you know me
  • I live and die nearly every day
  • Insanity, it's havin' its way with me
  • These days in the gallows
  • I'm kneeling at the block
  • With my neck outstretched
  • And I should've stayed in the shallows
  • But you know me, I'm in too deep
  • And I'm waiting for another me
  • One that can change the pain of yesterday
  • Carry me through another day
  • And I'm waiting for another me
  • One in between the burn
  • And the lessons learned
  • 'Cause being me ain't no way to be
  • I'm talking law down at Murphy's Bar
  • Unhappy hour on my own last call
  • Calling me out on my living lie
  • Looking for luck I can't even buy
  • [Chorus]
  • Give me one chance at recovering
  • What was lost
  • And give me one shot at redemption
  • At any cost
  • Repair my way before it breaks me
  • Don't break me
  • Hello did you notice me
  • Can't you see that I'm crumbling down
  • Tired of the same old same
  • I'm coming to
  • I'm coming back around
  • [Chorus]
  • [Chorus]
 
  • You need a little makeup dear
  • To cover up all your stains
  • With another trick right here, yeah
  • You fool them all once again
  • You need a little emptiness
  • Before you know what is real
  • And take a little taste of wine, yeah
  • To give yourself half a chance
  • And when you're weak of holding on
  • Release your wayward soul
  • And with these treasures you have found
  • The broken pieces of your crown
  • It's time to lay your cross on down
  • (Lay it down)
  • And with this kingdom you have now
  • It's time to lay your cross on down
  • You better lay it down
  • You carry in a bright white lie
  • To cover up all your shame
  • You're gonna have to testify
  • To color in all your claims
  • And when you're weak of holding on
  • Release your wayward soul and
  • Spend your days not falling down
  • Before your empty idols
  • [Chorus]
  • Lay it down
  • (Lay it down)
  • Chorus
  • Lay it down
  • (Lay it down)
  • [Chorus]
 
  • I've been a heavy handful to hold
  • Like rain slipping through your fingers
  • You've been tall to handle it all
  • Most people have already walked away
  • Our storm have taken a toll on you
  • Can you still weather me
  • I wanted so much to fill you up
  • But your cup is full of me
  • I've left a bitter taste on you
  • But you say its bitter sweetly
  • Breathe in
  • Be safe with me for a while
  • Lay here and take some time
  • I see you're tired and wasted so
  • Hold on to every little piece of my love
  • Just hold on to every little piece of my love
  • Hold on
  • Somebody's gonna make a promise to you
  • And somebody's gonna let you down
  • Nobody's gonna love you like I do
  • Nobody's gonna love so sweetly
  • Don't go just stay with me for a while
  • Lets try to make some sense of it all
  • I see you're tired and wasted so
  • [Chorus]
  • So hold on to me
  • When you're feeling dead inside
  • And close all the lines
  • To the times that we were living it all wrong
  • [Answer Backs]
  • Take me and break me
  • Then build me up and hold on
  • To every little piece of my love
  • Just hold on to every little piece of my love
  • [Repeat 3x]
  • Every little piece of my love
  • Every little piece of my love
