Life was hard and so we
Traded scares and war stories
And confessed it might be
Easier to not care
But that we just weren’t there.
Yet.
The road was cold and so we
Built a fire with the things
We’d decided we bring
To remind us of home.
Yea, that whole idea’s just gone
You are the light of the world
Like I wanted it to be
But this world is harder and colder
And it’s got me wondering if
Anything I do makes sense
Much less makes any difference
At all
Life was hard
The road was cold
All along it was just
You and me there in the throes
Maybe that’s all I need to know.
You are the light of the world
Like I wanted it to be
But this world is harder and colder
And it’s got me wondering if
Anything I do makes sense
But you here makes all the difference.

Drink up, baby, down
Mmm, are you in or are you out?
Leave your things behind
'Cause it's all going off without you
Excuse me, too busy
You're writing your tragedy
These mishaps you bubble wrap
When you've no idea what you're like
So let go, so let go, hmm, jump in
Oh, well, whatcha waiting for? It's alright
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown
So let go, yeah let go, just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here, it's alright
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown
It gains the more it gives
And then it rises with the fall
So hand me that remote
Can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow?
Such boundless pleasure
We've no time for later now
You can't await your own arrival
You've twenty seconds to comply
So let go, so let go and jump in
Oh, well, whatcha waiting for? It's alright
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown
So let go, yeah, let go, just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here, it's alright
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

What we once had we loved and adored it;
Cared for it till the season changed.
Now you just call it strange.
call it what you want to, thats just fine
i'l just call you mine
“Everything has a time and a season.”
That’s easy to read and easier to say
till something you love breaks.
Treat it how you want to, thats just find
i'll treat you like your mine
Everything has a time and a season
loved what we had beyond every reason
You do what you want to, thats just fine
You’ll always be mine.

Worried about graduation
From all these lessons in life
Without only a few passing grades in
Classes I’ve taken twice
Carried along by momentum
Here to the edge of myself
Pausing to look for a moment
Missing what I’ve just left
