I swam across to get you on the other bank
I only got scared when you didn't want to talk about it
I said a lot of people get killed like that
You didn't say a thing, so I almost forgot about it
Even if we're meant to sit in the cold
The shivers are proving warmth is the goal
So open your heart, just let it flood the place
When it recedes, look for what stayed the same
Can't you see that
Even though a pain remains
One little fire could outshine the darker days
(Instrumental)
Who knows how we get here in the first place? (ahh ahh)
We're chasing after love
Then we wake up in the depths of hell
But love isn't some happy maniacal race (ahh ahh)
It's walking on the water by forgetting about yourself
I know there are many who may sink no matter what
But don't let the lies disprove a breathing proof
In whom you might see God
So open your heart, just let it flood the place
When it recedes, look for what stayed the same
Can't you see that
Even though a pain remains
One little fire could outshine the darker days
(Instrumental)
Come on, brother
Wake up, sister
Rise up, brother
Rise up, sister
I know you're scared
Buried in there
But deep in your ashes
There's an ember waiting to spark
So open your heart, just let it flood the place
When it recedes, look for what stayed the same
Oh can't you see that
Even though a pain remains
One little fire could outshine the darker days
(Nah-ooh ooh-ooh)
