Maybe we're the lucky ones

'Cause we can choose to turn it off

Maybe we're the lonely ones

'Cause we decide to shield what's soft



I'm sure you'll learn to dance and drink and dream

but you might still feel lost 



And I see myself in you my friend

but I would break where you would bend

I'm calling on what you defend and tonight I won't hold back



Just don't waste all your years 

believing in the fear

You'll choke out what's alive and make

What's wrong be all that's real



I can see you're weakened at the seams

And trying to swim upstream but can't find a way



So here we are again trying to hold back 

the tides behind our eyes

lucky ones trying to drink from both the wells we claim are dry

I guess I've found some freedom in 

embracing every time they pry



We're both the same 

You're just like me



And when your skin finally sheds 

You'll find your nerves all in shreds

The price may be to keep your heart you'll lose your head
