lyrics

If I could see through you
Like a ghost inside my room
I'd turn myself into a wall you could pass through
I'd hold my breath and wait
I'd tempt all of my fate
If it meant that I could choose to start again with you

So go ahead and play the fool
While everything you know ain't true
Is standing here next to you

He's gonna play with your heart
And tell you how he would fall apart
If your heart was untrue
But I can see it right from the start
He's a moment you'll wish that you could lose
And he's holding you
Like a dark sky holds the moon

You're never far from home
When you're lost with your eyes closed
You'll dream that you can run away from everyone
But when I'm on my own
I can feel I'm not alone
It's never off my mind
We're not the wild type

Did you think that I could handle this
Shake it off and say I'm never gonna
Find a star or start to wish
Knock me down and I'll nose-dive for ya

That's the sound of falling forward
That's the sound of falling for words
Maybe you will fall back to me
Maybe you will fall back into me
