Just give me a reason
To keep my heart beating
Don’t worry it’s safe right here in my arms
As the world falls apart around us
All we can do is hold on, hold on
Take my hand
And bring me back, yeah
I risk everything if it’s for you
I whisper into the night
Telling me it’s not my time and don’t give up
I’ve never stood up before this time
Down is not the way we go
I feel a chance so I know that I can't give in
So stand up, stand up (just gotta keep on running)
Wake up, wake up (just tell me how I can)
Never give up
These moments of beauty drive me insane
Just tell me why baby
They might call me crazy
For saying I’ll fight until there is no more
Forget how we felt about each other
It’s time to get over
Blinded I can’t see the end
So where do I begin?
Say another word, I can’t hear you
The silence between us
Is starting to be louder than the word we scream
I take this chance that I make you mine
Taking in the fears I know, and knowing what I can barely say
So stand up, stand up (just gotta keep on running)
Wake up, wake up (just tell me how I can)
Never give up
These moments of beauty makes me somber
Just give me a reason
To keep my heart beating
Don’t worry it’s safe right here in my arms
Crying it's time to save the weaker
Reaching for something
So blinded I can’t see the end
Look how far we’ve made it
The pain I can’t escape it
Remember a time when I was on the outs and had nowhere to go
I know now that, no matter how I start I have to play my part
All the way through
So where do I begin?
This hand I've held tightly
To keep it close to me
I can't let it slip through these fingers I'll hold on
It's away with those old days back when I had nothing or no one to lose
I do now
Just tell me why baby
They might call me crazy (crazy)
For saying I’ll fight until there is no more (no more)
Forget how we felt about each other
It’s time to get over
Blinded I can’t see the end
Look how far we’ve made it (made it)
The pain I can’t escape it (escape it)
Remember a time when I was on the outs and had nowhere to go
I know now that, no matter how I start I have to play my part
All the way through
It finally begins
