lyrics

There's days and nights when I feel like giving in,
Old habits start to sweat through the pores in my skin,
The afternoons feel like I'm sinking in the quicksand
Before my ambition rises,
Saving me from helplessness,
Before my ambition rises,
Saving me from helplessness.

I've walked this far without any shoes on my feet,
For once I'm vulnerable,
Wearing more than my heart on my sleeve,
But I bare it for you,
I bare it for you.

There's conflict in living,
Divided by pain,
Never really sure if tomorrow will bring the sun or the rain,
I'm sorry in advance,
I find myself caught in the storm.

Always been effective at hurting the ones I love,
I'm always finding the wrong words,
They take the air from your lungs,
I swear I don't mean them,
I don't wanna push you away.

Someday this line will reach your ears,
And someday this voice will be the voice that you hear,
But you'll never know who inspired me to sing these songs,
And it's you,
It's always been you.

There's days and nights when I feel like giving in,
Nights when my spirit calls for you
But the only answer is the wind,
Nights when my spirit calls for you
But the only answer is the wind.
So I'm giving in,
I'm giving in.
