tired eyes
searching for yours
throughout those bright, bright lights
we don’t know who we are tonight
we don’t know who we can be if you
just let this feel right
any chances
any second chances would be nice
for a change
let me know this is more, this is more
aside from those mind games
that i’m done playing
i’m so over those nights of
faith and trust and beautiful love
we could have made it anywhere
take me, break me
my feelings would still remain the same
electric currents flowing throughout my veins
whisper to me what makes you feel alive
in times like these, all i can do is try
yeah, all i can do is try and try and try
for you to understand why
i’m still standing here,
open and bruised
still believing in you, always believing
i can’t stop believing in faith and trust and beautiful love
that you confessed to me so many times before
and i’m dancing all around
all over this floor
with all these people closing in
and you’re swaying next to me, i can always hear you breathing
heavy and steady and everything in between
please tell me what you mean, when you say
things like these aren’t as they seem
because all i felt was you and me
connected, and i never looked away
i never decided to give up on this fight
we don’t know who we are tonight
we don’t know who we can be if you
just let this feel right
any chances
any second chances would be nice
for a change
i’ll be waiting here,
i’ll be waiting
till you decide to call out my name
i’ll be waiting here,
i’ll be waiting
my feelings would still remain the same
electric currents flowing throughout my veins
whisper to me what makes you feel alive
in times like these, all i can do is try
try and try and try…

I love that.
