We’re burning up like embers in the breeze You’re leaving your body right in front of me
And even though we tried To make it back on parts that would never do I didn’t care ’cause I had you And if we don’t survive And all the pieces start to come unglued I’m glad I fell apart with you
Why won’t you let me in again? We’ve practiced this a thousand times Just lift the latch, let me inside Oh why, won’t you let me in? I know the sleepy feeling must be nice But hear my voice, open your eyes
Here we both collide Into the ocean that we both came from The wall’s on fire but I feel numb Underwater at least 100 feet And the surface looks like a sheet Of ice. Can you hear me scream? I’m right outside
Why won’t you let me in again? We’ve practiced this a thousand times Just lift the latch, let me inside Oh why, won’t you let me in? I know the sleepy feeling must be nice But hear my voice, open your eyes
We are sinking down so low, so low You are sleeping now, don’t go, don’t go We are sinking down so low, don’t go
I know that we can have a future But you have to hear my call It’s time for us to go home And leave these broken parts I know that you’re weighed down by water But I have to get you out It’s time for us to go, no I can never let you drown
Why won’t you let me in again? We’ve practiced this a thousand times Just lift the latch, let me inside Oh, why won’t you let me in? I know the sleepy feeling must be nice But hear my voice, open your eyes
I know that we can have a future But you have to hear my call It’s time for us to go home And leave these broken parts I know that you’re weighed down by water But I have to get you out It’s time for us to go, no I can never let you drown
