[Verse]
I'm shooting for the stars to hit the moon, 
Mapping out a course for both my shoes, 
I've already practiced acting like there's nothing to it, 
Trying to hold the world together in my mind, 
Trying to make it snow in mid-July, 
Trying to prove my heart is worth the blood that's pumping through it.
[Hook]
Praying like a child on Christmas Eve, 
Father won't you raise the sun early, 
If you do this one last thing for me I'll be your soilder.
[Chorus]
And it takes you by suprise, 
Like a rebel tide, 
Like lighting from the skies has been searching for ya, 
And it splits you like a knife, 
The moment that it tries, 
Make you [?] alive the dead that's looking for ya, 
[Verse]
Trying to keep my hopes above my doubts, 
Trying to keep my thoughts above my mouth, 
I feel like a satellite just dying and leave my orbit, 
I take another shot at faking love, 
Miss it by a mile left and some, 
My insides are burning like I ever think you're boring.
[Hook]
Praying like a child on Christmas Eve, 
Father won't you raise the sun early, 
I ask an awful lot of both my needs just waiting for ya, 
[Chorus]
And it takes you by suprise, 
Like a rebel tide, 
Like lighting from the skies has been searching for ya, 
And it splits you like a knife, 
The moment that it tries, 
Make you alive the dead that's looking for ya, 
[Instrumental]
And it takes you by suprise, 
Like a rebel tide, 
Like lightning from the skies has been searching for ya... 
And it splits you like a knife, 
The moment that it tries, 
Make you feel alive 
Oooooooohhhhhhh
