Not everything’s gonna go your way

Some days were only made

For falling down

We all dance around the ache

But the strongest hearts will sometimes break into the ground

It’s easy to

Forget what’s true

Love will come around again

Don’t give up

Don’t give in

Love will come around again

It always comes around again

When the second guessing starts

People show you who they are

And it hurts like hell

‘Cause you knew them once so well

And now it’s sticks and stones that break your skin

And start a lonely war within

But honestly, that’s sometimes how it’s supposed to be

It’s easy to

Forget what’s true

Love will come around again

Don’t give up

Don’t give in

Love will come around again

It always comes around again

Everybody knows the pain

Of something good fading away

Letting go

We all, we all, we all know

It’s easy to

Forget what’s true

Love will come around again

Don’t give up

Don’t give in

Love will come around again

It always comes around again

Araound again

There’s been a lot of miscommunication lately

A lot of wait and see and too many maybes

And I wanna believe that your faith in me is as strong as it was when we thought we’d be unbreakable

All the words we say end up distorted

From skin break to heartache without warning

And you don’t mean it and I don’t either, we get so close to being defeated by circumstance

Do we stand a chance

To rise above it all

But I feel so small

Lay your weapons down

And I’ll take my armor off

Say what we need to say

And love before it’s lost

‘Cause what we have is real

And real can hurt sometimes

But just because it hurts doesn’t mean that we say goodbye

So lay your weapons down

Feel so uncomfortable in this silence

Behind these invisible walls we build inside us

So what’s gonna give and what will it take for us to admit that we’re both gonna break if we stay right here

Don’t wanna stay right here

Lay your weapons down

And I’ll take my armor off

Say what we need to say

And love before it’s lost

‘Cause what we have is real

And real can hurt sometimes

But just because it hurts doesn’t mean that we say goodbye

So lay your weapons down

I wanna rise above it all

Will you hold me, just hold me

And lay your weapons down

And I’ll take my armor off

Say what we need to say

And love before it’s lost

‘Cause what we have is real

And real can hurt sometimes

But just because it hurts doesn’t mean that we say goodbye

So lay your weapons down

Lay Your Weapons Down

Build walls in secret corners

Crying out in solitude

Storms come in without warning

Trying to black out my view

You play your part in every story

You’re always in between the lines

You never wanna take the glory

When I fall, you fall too

But when I break, you break through

When my world’s wrecking me, you bring me back patiently

I don’t ever have to ask you, you don’t have to ask me too

If I’m afraid of anything it’s me without you

My sun and my shadow

My sun and my shadow

My heart, a time-bomb ticking

My mind, a mind of its own

As far as it drifts, I won’t get tricked

Into thinking I could ever do this alone

When I fall, you fall too

But when I break, you break through

When my world’s wrecking me, you bring me back patiently

I don’t ever have to ask you, you don’t have to ask me too

If I’m afraid of anything it’s me without you

My sun and my shadow

My sun and my shadow

You’re everywhere I go

My sun and my shadow

You play your part in every story

You’re always in between the lines

You never wanna take the glory

When I fall, you fall too

But when I break, you break through

When my world’s wrecking me, you bring me back, patiently

I don’t ever have to ask you, you don’t have to ask me too

If I’m afraid of anything it’s me without you

My sun and my shadow

My sun and my shadow

You’re everywhere I go

My sun and my shadow

Sun & Shadow

Underneath the surface, rising tide

Caught up in the current, too hard to fight

Everything’s blurry, colorblind

Everything you’re seeing, so black, so white

I know it’s ups and downs

Your life hasn’t been easy

I know those darker days, believe me

I could be your heartbeat

Running through your veins

When all the world goes silent, I will say your name

And when the light is hiding

And you’re running out of remedies

When your fire’s dying, I’ll be what you need

I could be your heartbeat

I could be your heartbeat

Head up in the skyline, heavy clouds

Gravity’s pulling you to the ground

I wanna be your parachute

I wanna be your peace

I wanna be your rescue

Someway, somehow

Right now

I could be your heartbeat

Running through your veins

When all the world goes silent, I will say your name

And when the light is hiding

And you’re running out of remedies

When your fire’s dying, I’ll be what you need

I could be your heartbeat

I could be your heartbeat

I know it’s ups and downs

Your life hasn’t been easy

I know those darker days

I’ve seen ‘em all believe me

And when your heart’s about to break,

I’ll bring you back to life

I could be your heartbeat

Running through your veins

When all the world goes silent, I will say your name

And when the light is hiding

And you’re running out of remedies

When your fire’s dying, I’ll be what you need

I could be your heartbeat

I could be your heartbeat

I could be your heartbeat

I could be your heartbeat

Heartbeat

You seemed so different from everyone

How you fooled me

Your heart was as here and gone as a loaded gun

Quickly fired

The pain so deep, no sign of healing

But I took our love so damn seriously, seriously

You’re just a runaway

I thought you’d always stay

But in the moment it got harder

Your heart was not as honest

As I thought it’d be, yeah you swore to me

It’d take an army to destroy us

But now all that I know is

I’ll never change

You’re just a runaway

I was as ready as I’d ever been

Open and hopeful, but i

I was torn and tossed to the deepest end

Of endless wishing

That I was wrong, and that you where better

Than what you showed me,

It keeps messing with me, It’s still messing with me

You’re just a runaway

I thought you’d always stay

But in the moment it got harder

Your heart was not as honest

As I thought it’d be, yeah you swore to me

It’d take an army to destroy us

But now all that I know is

I’ll never change

You’re just a runaway

From the highest high, to the lowest low

If it’s a runaway, you just gotta let him go

You’re just a runaway

I thought you’d always stay

But in the moment it got harder

Your heart was not as honest

As I thought it’d be, yeah you swore to me

It’d take an army to destroy us

But now all that I know is

I’ll never change

And you’ll stay the same

And it hurts to say

You’re just a runaway

Runaway

We spend so much time deciding

If the heart that's on the line's worth fighting for

All that hurried hesitations

All that worried waiting out for something more

When you kiss my skin

Darling, I'll forget all of the days

When nothing was sure

If we got all of our lives to just make it right

I hope that I'm right with you

So come on and give me your time

And I'll give you mine

And I'll make it right with you

It's so perfectly imperfect

But the back and forth is worth it

When you fall

When you fall

It's also simple and complex

I love the way it wrecks me

I love it all

I love it all

When you pull me in

I'll forget all of the days

When nothing was sure

If we got all of our lives to just make it right

I hope that I'm right with you

So come on and give me your time

And I'll give you mine

And I'll make it right with you

When I'm with you

What a beautiful, beautiful view

When I'm with you

What a beautiful, beautiful view

All of the days when nothing was sure

But you came my way

And you're something more

If we got all of our lives to just make it right

I hope that I'm right with you

If we got all of our lives to just make it right

I hope that I'm right with you

So come on and give me your time

And I'll give you mine

And I'll make it right with you

When I'm with you

What a beautiful, beautiful view

When I'm with you

What a beautiful, beautiful view

Right with you

Right with you

Right with you
