Song lyrics


Once again
I’m falling to my knees
I try to escape cause I just can’t it
Now this feeling
Is spreading like a disease
I fake another day and the wheel keeps turning

This place is so pathetic
Doesn’t anybody get it
Is there anybody home?
Is there anybody home?
There’s nothing left
We’re just a shadow
Of what we used to be

In the night
There’s a fire in my eyes
And this paradise
Has become a place we’ve come to cry
When I open your letter
The words make it better
It takes it all away
It keeps me holding on

Here we are
Pretending we’re okay
You can say what you want
But you still can’t fool me
The life we’re living
It’s all a masquerade
I try to smile but I can’t remember how
So how did we get so jaded
Is it so complicated
To not give up on me?

In the night
There’s a fire in my eyes
And this paradise
Has become a place we’ve come to cry
When I open your letter
The words make it better
It takes it all away It keeps me holding on

Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you
It keeps me holding on

Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you
It keeps me holding on
You keep me holding on
In the night
There’s a fire in my eyes
And this paradise
Has become a place we’ve come to cry
When I open your letter
The words make it better
It takes it all away
It keeps me holding on

Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you
It keeps me holding on
Whenever I need you
Wherever I run to
I know where to find you
It keeps me holding on
