Hold  my breath  and I'll count  to ten
  I'm the paper and you're the pen
  You fill me in and you are permanent
  And you'll leave me to dry
  I'm the writer and she's the muse
  I'm the one that you always choose
  She will falter and gift her blame
  And it's starts all over again
  Again again again
 She is bright lights and cityscapes
  I'm white lies that care for gates
  And she'll take all you ever have
  But I'm gonna love you
  You say maybe it'll last this time
  But I'm gonna love you
  You never have to ask
  I'm gonna love you
  'Til you start looking back
  I'm gonna love you
  So right
  I wouldn't need a second chance
 Shield your eyes from the truth at hand
  Tell me why it'll be good again
  All those demons are closing in
  And I don't want you to burn
  Nevermind what I said before
  I don't want any less anymore
  You are carbon and I am flame
  I will rise and you will
  Remain
 For bright lights and cityscapes
  And landslides and masquerades
  And she'll take all you ever have
  But I'm gonna love you
  You say, "Maybe it'll last this time"
  But I'm gonna love you
  You never have to ask
  I'm gonna love you
  'Til you start looking back
  I wouldn't need a second chance
  I wouldn't need a second chance
  I wouldn't need a second chance
  I wouldn't need a second chance

 I'm the one that you always choose
 She will falter and gift her blame
 And it's starts all over again
 Again again again

She is bright lights and cityscapes
 I'm white lies that care for gates
 And she'll take all you ever have
 But I'm gonna love you
 You say maybe it'll last this time
 But I'm gonna love you
 You never have to ask
 I'm gonna love you
 'Til you start looking back
 I'm gonna love you
 So right

 Tell me why it'll be good again
 All those demons are closing in
 And I don't want you to burn
 Nevermind what I said before
 I don't want any less anymore
 You are carbon and I am flame
 I will rise and you will
 Remain

For bright lights and cityscapes
 And landslides and masquerades
 And she'll take all you ever have
 But I'm gonna love you
 You say, "Maybe it'll last this time"
 But I'm gonna love you
 You never have to ask
 I'm gonna love you
 'Til you start looking back
 I wouldn't need a second chance
 I wouldn't need a second chance
 I wouldn't need a second chance
 I wouldn't need a second chance
