Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
Yeah, we'll be counting stars
I see this life like a swinging vine,
Swing my heart across the line
In my face is flashing signs,
Seek it out and ye shall find.
Old but I'm not that old
Young but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told
I I I I feel something so right by doing the wrong thing
And I I I I feel something so wrong by doing the right thing
I could lie, couldn't I, couldn't I?
Every thing that kills me makes me feel alive.
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
Baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be-we'll be counting stars
Ye-e-yeah
I feel her love
And I feel it burn down this river every time
Hope is our four-letter word, make that money watch it burn
Old but, I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
And I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told
And I I I I feel something so wrong by doing the right thing
I could lie, couldn't I, couldn't I?
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
Baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be-we'll be counting stars
Oh, take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
Take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
Take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
Take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
Baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby I've been, I've been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be-we'll be counting stars
Take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
Take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
Take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
Take that money watch it burn,
Sing in the river the lessons I learned
I stared up at the sun,
Thought of all of the people, places and things I’ve loved.
I stared up just to see
With all of the faces, you were the one next to me.
You can feel the light start to tremble,
Washing what you know out to sea.
You can see your life out of the window tonight.
If I lose myself tonight,
It’ll be by your side.
I lose myself tonight...
(oh) yeah, yeah, yeah.
If I lose myself tonight,
It’ll be you and I.
Lose myself tonight...
[Instrumental break]
I woke up with the sun,
Thought of all of the people, places and things I’ve loved.
I woke up just to see
With all of the faces, you were the one next to me.
You can feel the light start to tremble,
Washing what you know out to sea.
You can see your life out of the window tonight.
If I lose myself tonight,
It’ll be by your side.
I lose myself tonight...
(oh) yeah, yeah, yeah.
If I lose myself tonight,
It’ll be you and I.
Lose myself tonight...
Whoooooooooo
[Instrumental] (Whoooooooooo)
Take us down and we keep trying,
Forty thousand feet, keep flying.
Take us down and we keep trying,
Forty thousand feet, keep flying.
Take us down and we keep trying,
Forty thousand feet, keep flying.
Take us down and we keep trying,
Forty thousand feet, keep flying.
(Lose myself)
If I lose myself tonight...
Whoooooooooo
Whoooooo, whoooo,
Whooooooo
Whoooooooooo
Whoooooo, whoooo,
Whooooooo
It's been a long time coming since I've seen your face
I've been everywhere and back trying to replace
Everything that I had 'til my feet went numb
Praying like a fool that's been on the run
Heart's still beating but it's not working
It's like a million dollar phone that you just can't ring
I reached out trying to love but I feel nothing
Yeah, my heart is numb
But with you
I feel again
Yeah, with you
I can feel again
Yeah
Woo-hoo [x4]
I'm feeling better ever since you know me
I was a lonely soul but that's the old me
It's been a long time coming since I've seen your face
I've been everywhere and back trying to replace
Everything that I broke 'til my feet went numb
[Album version:] Praying like a fool just shot the gun
[Radio version:] Praying like a fool just shy of a gun
Heart still beating but it's not working
It's like a hundred thousand voices that just can't sing
I reached out trying to love but I feel nothing
Oh, my heart is numb
But with you
I feel again
Yeah, with you
I can feel again
But with you
(I'm feeling better ever since you know me)
I feel again
(I was a lonely soul but that's the old me)
Yeah, with you
(I'm feeling better ever since you know me)
I can feel again
(I was a lonely soul)
Woo-hoo [x5]
(I'm feeling better ever since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
(I'm feeling better ever since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
(I'm feeling better ever since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
I'm feeling better ever since you know me
I was a lonely soul but that's the old me
A little wiser now from what you've shown me
Yeah, I feel again
Feel again...
Woo-hoo
I'll find the places where you hide
I'll be the dawn on your worst night
The only thing left that I like
Yeah I would kill for you, that's right
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
I'll put your poison in my veins
They say the best love is insane, yeah
I'll light your fire till my last day
I'll let your fields burn around me, around me
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
I'll run out of this town
Oh, my love is true
Tell me, something I wouldn't do.
[2x]
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
If that's what you wanted
Hope when you take that jump, you don't fear the fall
Hope when the water rises, you built a wall
Hope when the crowd screams out, they're screaming your name
Hope if everybody runs, you choose to stay
Hope that you fall in love, and it hurts so bad
The only way you can know is give it all you have
And I hope that you don't suffer but take the pain
Hope when the moment comes, you'll say...
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places, the things that I did
With every broken bone, I swear I lived
Hope that you spend your days, but they all add up
And when that sun goes down, hope you raise your cup
Oh, I wish that I could witness all your joy and all your pain
But until my moment comes, I'll say...
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places, the things that I did
With every broken bone, I swear I lived
Oh [4x]
With every broken bone, I swear I lived.
With every broken bone, I swear I...
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places, the things that I did
With every broken bone, I swear I lived.
Oh [4x]
I swear I lived. Ohhh [2x]
Like a stone you watch it fall
And let it roll out over the fields
You take your time and watch it crawl
Like you're the big shot symphony
But oh what would you say if I told you 'the pitch is wrong' with a smile?
I took a trip to wonderland,
Gonna get you nowhere by a mile
I,
I could light it up for you
I,
I could light it up for you
We
We ain't got a shot to lose
Put it on but fade it out
Tell you that you weren't enough
Acting like your favourite drug
Raise a cup
We can light it up
I took a shot and missed the mark
Well every single day I multiply
A million drums of kerosene
Baby, like a hotel in the sky
I just want to see
All the sparks you're trying to hide
Let's take a trip to wonderland
We can just tune this fire tonight
I,
I could light it up for you
I,
I could light it up for you
We
We ain't got a shot to lose
Put it on but fade it out
Tell you that you weren't enough
Acting like your favourite drug
Raise a cup
We can light it up
We can light it up
I guess this is what it's supposed to feel like
No, we don't talk, no, we don't talk, we don't talk anymore.
I guess this is what it's supposed to sound like
The universe, the universe, universe is torn.
I don't want to live without you
I can't live without you half the day, hey hey
I don't want to live without you
And put life off for another day, hey-hey yeah hey-hey yeah
[Chorus:]
But I can't stop thinking about, thinking about us anymore, oh, oh
I said I can't stop thinking about, thinking about us anymore, oh, oh
I said I can't stop, no, thinking about, thinking about this anymore, oh, oh
And all I've got, uh, is nothing I want anymore, oh, oh
No I never get used to silence
But I don't hear, no, I don't hear, I don't hear you anymore.
I know I had to look hard to find it
Everything, everything, everything is gone.
I don't want to live without you
And put life off for another day, hey-hey yeah hey-hey yeah
[Chorus]
I can't stop thinking about, thinking about us anymore, oh, oh
I said I can't stop thinking about, thinking about us anymore, oh, oh
I said I can't stop, no, thinking about, thinking about this anymore, oh, oh
And all I've got, uh, is nothing I want anymore, oh, oh
I can see stars, I can see our lights,
And I swear that they're shining here
I can see stars, I can see lights shining here.
[Chorus:]
I can't stop thinking about, thinking about us anymore, oh, oh
I said I can't stop thinking about, thinking about us anymore, oh, oh
I said I can't stop thinking about, thinking about this anymore, oh, oh
And all I've got, uh, is nothing I want anymore, oh, oh
Uh uh uh uh.
Today I'm not myself
And you, you're someone else
And all these rules don't fit
And all that starts can quit
What a peculiar state we're in
What a peculiar state we're in
Let's play a game
Where all of the lives we lead can change
Let's play a game
Where nothing that we can see, the same
We'll find other pieces to the puzzles
Slipping out under the locks
I can show you how many moves to check mate right now
We can take apart this life we're building
And pack it up inside a box
All that really matters is we're doing it right now
Right now
We'll find other pieces to the puzzles
Slipping out under the locks
I can show you how many moves to check mate right now
We can take apart this life we're building
And pack it up inside a box
All that really matters is we're doing it right now
Right now
You and I were meant to be, ain't no doubt about it no way to hide that sort of thing
Now I'm waiting for something better ain't nothing better worth imagining
I, I keep on running I'm building bridges that I know you never wanted
Look for my heart you stole it away
Now I'll never sing the road that I could take
Listen, I want you to burn my bridges down
I said, I want you to burn my bridges down
Set me on Fire. You set me, set me on fire
You can burn my bridges down
Send this out to sea, send it where you wanted you can take your no for no or not at all
There's no filling up your spaces with fictionary places imaginary faces they don't work at all
I, I keep on running. I'm building bridges that I know you never wanted
Look for my heart you stole it away
Now I'll never sing the road that I could take
Listen, I want you to burn my bridges down
I said, I want you to burn my bridges down
Set me on Fire. You set me, set me on fire
Girl you burnt my bridges down
I want you to burn my bridges down, down
I want you to burn my bridges down
Set me on fire. You set me
Set me on Fire [x2]
I want you to burn my bridges down
I said, I want you to burn my bridges down down, down
Set me on fire [x2]
I had a dream the other night
About how we only get one life
Woke me up right after two
Stayed awake and stared at you
So I wouldn't lose my mind
And I had the week that came from hell
And yes I know that you could tell
But you're like the net under the ledge
When I go flying off the edge
You go flying off as well
And if you only die once I wanna die with
You got something I need
In this world full of people there's one killing me
And if we only die once, (hey)
I wanna die with you (you, you, you)
You got something I need
In this world full of people there's one killing me
And if we only die once, (hey)
I wanna die with you (you, you)
Last night I think I drank too much, yeah
Call it our temporary crutch, hey
With broken words I've tried to say
Honey don't you be afraid
If we got nothing we got us (Yeah)
And if you only die once I wanna die with
You got something I need
In this world full of people there's one killing me
And if we only die once, (hey)
I wanna die with you (you, you, you)
You got something I need
In this world full of people there's one killing me
And if we only die once, (hey)
I wanna die with you (you, you, you)
I know that we're not the same
But I'm so damn glad that we made it
To this time, this time, now (yeah)
You got something I need
Yeah in this world full of people there's one killing me
And if we only die once I wanna die with you (heeyy)
You got something I need
In this world full of people there's one killing me
And if we only die once, (hey)
I wanna die with you (you, you, you)
You got something I need
In this world full of people there's one killing me
And if we only die once, (hey)
I wanna die with you (you, you, you)
If we only die once (hey) I wanna die with
If we only live once I wanna live with you
When I was a kid
I used to buy and sell gravity
I knew how to fly
And I would teach you for a fee
Broke every window
In my hotel heart
When I was only 5 years old but 12 years scarred
And I'd hear the same voice
Echo in my mind
Said, "Son you got an angel,
To chase the devil at night."
Yeah
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about God
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said, "God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves."
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
I took a little faith
And put it in a parking lot
I drove to a strange town
Full of "have" and "have nots"
And as I walked through that storybook life
I was looking for an angel to chase the devil at night
Oh! Oh! Oh!
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about love
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said, "God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves."
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
[3x]
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about life
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said, "God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves."
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth.
