[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Time lost, miles away
In a world of bullets
In a bed, an empty space
picture frame, a portrait
The night falls, I'm awake
I'm left to rust in silence
Withdraw my mistakes
I'm left to trust in violence
[Pre-Chorus]
Well can you teach me how to fly
In a world so shallow?
Will you show me I'm alive
Or find a way to get home
[Chorus]
Well I'm alive
But paralyzed
By the sight of bloodshed fights
Shoot 'em right between the eyes
Can I let it go
When I'm leaving?
I'm weak inside
But built to fight
Living life through compromise
Terrified to prove me right
Can I let this go
When I'm leaving?
[Verse 2]
Headstones borrow names
Inscribed by anxious patients
fate calls, a blurry fate
Lies in the hands we're chased with
I'm bearing all
Bombs away
Curing fear with makeshift plans
Conquer the fall, we'll do it
Comfort the fall with bullshit
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you teach me how to fly
In a world so shallow?
Will you show me I'm alive
Or find a way to get home
[Chorus]
Well I'm alive
But paralyzed
By the sight of bloodshed fights
Shoot 'em right between the eyes
Can I let it go
When I'm leaving?
I'm weak inside
But built to fight
Living life through compromise
Terrified to prove me right
Can I let this go
When I'm leaving?
[Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you teach me how to fly
In a world so shallow
Will you show me I'm alive
Or find a way to get home
[Chorus]
Well I'm alive
But paralyzed
By the sight of bloodshed fights
Shoot 'em right between the eyes
Can I let it go
When I'm leaving?
I'm weak inside
But built to fight
Living life through compromise
Terrified to prove me right
Can I let this go
When I'm leaving?
