I guess I could've sent a letter from the road   With words that always meant more then updates on the phone   The signals fading fast and the ink is running out   The words look good in vain but sound better from my mouth      Please hold me tightly, I don't care if I can breathe tonight   Forget these lungs, their jealousy you're burning up   But I can't leave this all behind, leave this all behind   Forget these lungs, their jealousy you're burning up   But I can't leave this all behind      Behind your back talking like knives   And I can hardly breathe   Sharpen your tongue, the rest of your life   And I cannot believe anything that you say      Please hold me tightly, I don't care if I can breathe tonight   Forget these lungs, their jealousy you're burning up   But I can't leave this all behind, leave this all behind   Forget these lungs, their jealousy you're burning up   But I can't leave this all behind      So you're the fire and I'm the water   I am the balance and you are the color   I won't forget you when we're not together   This is the ending, it's my surrender      So you're the fire and I am the water   I am the balance and you are the color   I won't forget you when we're not together   This is the ending, it's my surrender      Please hold me tightly, I don't care if I can breathe tonight   Forget these lungs, their jealousy you're burning up   But I can't leave this all behind, leave this all behind   Forget these lungs, their jealousy you're burning up   But I can't leave
