lyrics

Bring your heart to the alter
Bring all the love that came before
There's a breath in the vapor and a push to the start
Hold my hand in the dark maybe I want more

Restless in the surrender
As you walk in the door
Tell yourself that your’e stronger than you’ve ever been before
Walk off all the lies, c’mon baby find me

Can’t fight this one more time so let’s do it again, do it again
And I’m gonna just try to remember to forget everything
Just let the stars in your eyes tell me the story of
Who I once was

Turn it down to a whisper
Let me catch my breath before it starts
Put all the pieces back together before it all blows apart
Unwrap and unwind it, reach out in the dark

CHORUS

Open up, ready for
Heart of hope in a metaphor
The innocent thirsty for
An awakening at every dawn

So by now it must be written
Cast the stone and down I fall
Kicking and screaming and oh-so-willing
There’s no better to fall
Maybe you remind me what I do it for

CHORUS
