Because we're Holding our own in a great big storm It's a great big storm and we're holding our own I've been lost in this maze Losing love losing friends losing faith in chemicals Afraid one day you'll find me Asleep above the stars I watch my mother cry Father time is catching up I keep the phone by my side Afraid she'll wake me up to catch the next flight In time to say goodbye But sometimes I fall asleep at night To the TV light and it sings (Oh ooo whoa oh) One day the sun will break into the room Because we're holding our own in a great big storm And though we're cutting it close We won't let go Oh no I can't believe Everything falling down around me But now we're holding our own And won't let go Broken hearts broken homes and broken bones Secret love let me go You know I gotta find my own way Through mistakes that I can't change Because there's beauty in every sin Every single black eye Has some blue like the moon just before the sun shines No I don't believe in all the things that they preach But sometimes I fell asleep at night And I just know you're smiling at me (Oh ooo whoa oh) One day I'm gonna make this up to you I can't stand myself And all the curse words that fell from my mouth I can't stand myself Or my legs as they run from the ones here to help But I just woke up with you next to me Some new air to breathe And a belief that it's all gonna be alright I can't stand myself But it's high time that we gave it a try And I think I'm gonna finally give myself a new try
