We call for love 
And we think that it's romantic
We hear, believe 
And we never question why
We chew on life 
Without looking for an answer
We stare at the walls 
And give up before we try

What if love keeps us safe
What if love keeps us brave
What if love keeps us safe
What if love keeps us safe 
Away from home

You call it quits
But I don't think that it's even
We're speeding on 
We run, run, run out of time
Steppingstones, there's always someone to step on
So stay close to me
There's a lot between the lines.

So let today go 
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly 
Let's take out the bad as we go
Let today go 
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly
Don't wanna let you go
Never let you go alone

We talk to God, we die and pray in the evening
We talk about the good or bad we won
I guess people show 
That beauty is often evil
So stay close to me 
I'll show you my right from wrong

And let today go 
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly
Let's take out the bad as we go
Let today go 
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly
Don’t wanna let you go
Never let you go alone
