Take me to your breaking point, I want to see it all
Touch me with your restless joints, I'll smile as you stall
To tell me why you can't resist and why you must proceed
Darling, stay with me tonight; we'll put our hearts at ease

In just one year, you'll be able to say
Goodbye to this world that you strung so high
Above your curtains when you sleep at night
The only thing that keeps them satisfied
The ones who love you most, the two who say they care
If caring means to boast, then who's to say what's fair?

Look into my eyes, let's forget about your past
Life's short as it is, now let's make these moments last
Keep your head above water just for another year
Darling, you'll be fine; just remember why you're here

It's not too late, just take one step back
We can cut this rope with our broken glass
Take my hand as I hold you close
Chin up, darling, you're a tear-stained rose
We can start all over together, me and you
And if your heart stops beating, then mine stops

Long sleeves and nicotine, going day by day
The forecast calls for rain, we can't abide by what they say
The rain may fail, but I'll still fall over again, like the very first day
Our eyes met, now hold your breath, I swear we've seen the best of it

Look into my eyes, let's forget about your past
Life's short as it is, now let's make these moments last

Look into my eyes, let's forget about your past
Life's short as it is, now let's make these moments last
Keep your head above water, just for another year
Darling, you'll be fine; darling, you'll be fine
We can start all over together, me and you
And if your heart stops beating, then mine stops too
