When we stand paralyzed
By the pulse of our hearts
When we know we need out
Desperation parading as love
When it's all too much
One more bend and you'll break
When the lies hurt like hell
I feel wrong; this feels fake
I want the strength to stand up
See this grief as a challenge
The change is constant but I want
I want to to take charge of it and
Walk with my head up
Throughout these days so long and painful
And wash these tears away
Get this heart beating for what's true
Hey
They say these lungs will help me through
When we close our eyes
To cross streets and freeways
When we have given up
On the comfort of friends and family
And the nights drag us
Through a silent misery
Of what we should have done
Differently, to not feel like this
I'm losing patience
With the void; each day with silence
And all those who run from consequence
Joke on; they always were dead
As long as I'm being honest
Yeah I'm a boy, and a criminal
Yeah the irony on our tongues
There's a heart beating for what's true
Hey
They say these lungs will help me through
