Let's leave this place behind
When we finally decide
What it's gonna take
To make you feel alive (feel alive)
What's it gonna take
To open up your eyes
To open up your eyes
It's time to get out of this town
this torture (this torture)
It still holds you down
Be blessed and move forward
Silent and sound
These words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Letting go of each other
We're still holding tight
All these words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Are we wasting our time?
Are you still holding tight?
It was only fair
To look to the sky
To breathe in the air
To wait in the shadows
With empty hands
No sense of pride
Would you give up
If we'd all given up
'Til the East was ours
We drew the lines that divide
Stapled these badges of pain to our sides
To our sides
We've all had our enemies
We're leaving the past behind
I don't feel like I'm losing sleep
I know you can see it in my eyes
We've all had our enemies
We're leaving the past behind
I don't feel like I'm losing sleep
I know you can see it in my eyes
You can see it in my eyes
You can see it in my eyes
These words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Letting go of each other
We're still holding tight
All these words don't always come out right
But I feel that we're wasting time
Are we wasting our time?
Are you still holding tight?
I'll leave my heart there by your bedside
If you swear that your eyes won't stray
To be honest, open and hoping
To find the words to say
I'll leave my heart there by your bedside
If you swear that your eyes won't stray
In honesty, honestly
I only let go for the sake of you
