[Verse 1:]  This step is the hardest one to take,   It's fucked up that the foundation  Is breaking now that the blueprints are unveiled.  This prayer is the only way I know to break this curse,   Your curtain call, and I don't want you to see me fail.    [Pre-chorus:]  This is how it feels to me; with every breath I take in,   It takes away from me too, to see you lying on your knees.  Just tell me everything's fine and I'll believe that it's true.    [Chorus 1:]  Open your heart, let me open mine.  Inhale for now, just let me say goodbye.  Or am I waiting to be alone.    [Verse 2:]  Face down in the dirt, I am your soldier here  And I won't forget your struggles with the sickness in your bed.  This prayer is the only way I know to break this curse,   This curtain call and I don't want you to see me fail.    [Pre-chorus]    [Chorus 2:]  Tell me God, can you not spare her life?   I pray today that you won't close her eyes.  Or am I waiting to be alone?     [Bridge:]  Alone. I'm waiting to be alone,   Alone inside.  So when can I see you next?   Once again in death?     [Chorus 1:]  Open your heart, let me open mine.  Inhale for now, just let me say goodbye.  Or am I waiting to be alone.
