What More Can I Say

Take your sweet time, don't forget to breathe

Shake your leaves but don't shake the tree

I see you suffering but I don't see you laughing

We got lovers in the war, taking their time

And so

Take your sweet time, don't hurry up because of me

It's all a mistake, but it's one that I have to make

Life's too short to be in the fast lane

I thought I heard you knocking

Or was that me?

Your smile is violent; I see you but do you see me?

Take my heart because you can't just have a piece

All we are, we are, we are is all we need

I believe in you, but I don't know how much I believe in me

Even if you could just breathe inside my mouth

One more time I could feel you

I could hold you up in my mind like I saw the light

I am what I am, and that's all you need to know

As I place my guts on the floor and let you see it all

I got more demons in my back than I got angels in my front

And I know, was that your voice I heard or was it just an echo?

I've been stuck in the forest too long

And I can't sing about anything else

I've got memories that have never even crossed my shelf

And I hope you can die with me

And I hope you can breathe easy

The future is not what it seems

But I hope we've got songs to sing

After the sticks click, we all explode into one

But we never know what's going to happen

That's why we keep our eyes open; such is life

Staring back at my hands terrified

We can't close our eyes, we can't close our minds

We take off our hands, we shake all of our feet

We got lovers in the sea that I don't know

But their dreams, they can definitely sing

It's been said, "keep moving on," I guess that's it

I've got lyrics that don't mean anything to you

But they mean so much to me

We hold out our hands, we hold all our dreams

We've got different thoughts

It doesn't mean it makes it wrong; it makes it right

We can love each other

We can love each other

We can all just love each other

I swear we can love each other

We can love each other

We can grab each other's hands

We got songs that need to be sung

And we got fights that need to be fought

The fight of peace

We can wage war against the war of hate

At least in my dreams, I still believe we can
