Let's take it down for a minute
Well, I know that's not your style
I've so many nights with my
Exit routes on file
Just a quiet conversation
If you can find it in yourself
They say to get to heaven
You have to go through hell
You hold me together when I wanna fall apart
I don't think forever's supposed to be quite this hard
You gave me everything
Now you wanna take it all away (take it all away)
When blood's thinner than water
It can't stop an open flame
Oh, now you're begging for forgiveness
Now you wanna be a man
Well, I'm a hundred miles away, so
Catch me if you can
You hold me together when I wanna fall apart
I don't think forever's supposed to be quite this hard
You gave me everything
Now you wanna take it all away (take it all away)
When blood's thinner than water
It can't stop an open flame
Oh, there's nothing left for me anyway (there's nothing left for me anyway) (there's nothing left)
A closet full of skeletons that I don't wanna see
When did those boxes get so heavy?
The final boarding call
But my train just won't leave
You hold me together when I wanna fall apart
I don't think forever's supposed to be quite this hard
You gave me everything
Now you wanna take it all away (take it all away)
When blood's thinner than water
It can't stop an open flame
Hey!
