We Rebuild

I have too much pride

To admit

That I was wrong

To keep you here

By my side

We rebuild

Making the same mistakes

When the water runs low

Our pride runs high

But it'll rise again

We convince ourselves

That it's worth the risk

But when the water fills our lungs,

We know that it's foolish to rebuild

We convince ourselves

That it's worth the risk

It's all my fault

We are up to our knees in the water

Watching our memories float away like the dead

We are up to our knees

Making the same mistakes

We are up to our knees

OH!

It's not worth the risk that we take

I'm asleep when the sun rises

And wide awake every night

My darling has left me hanging

And she will not

Cut me down

Cut me down

No, she won't let me go

I'm wide awake all alone

We convince ourselves

That it's worth the risk

And we refuse to call for rescue

Everything is destroyed

We try to stay afloat

I have too much pride

To admit we were wrong

OH!

I will not let her go

I will not

Let her go

OH!

I will not

I will not let her go

She is mine!

I will rebuild to watch it fall down again

But all you want is solid ground

I will rebuild to watch it fall down again

But all you want is solid ground

I'd rather drown than stand on solid ground

I'd rather drown than stand on solid ground

I'm asleep when the sun rises

And wide awake every night

My darling has left me hanging

And she will not

Cut me down

Cut me down

No, she won't let me go

I'm wide awake all alone

When the waters run low,

Our pride runs high.

When the storm destroys our hope

We always deny

That this is what we wanted

That this is what we needed

I'd rather drown, I'd rather drown

But this is what we wanted

But this is what we needed

I'd rather drown, I'd rather drown

I'm asleep when the sun rises

And wide awake every night

My darling has left me hanging

And she will not

Cut me down

Cut me down

No, she won't let me go

I'm wide awake all alone
