lyrics

I should know by now better than to let my mind race
Spiraling, imagining catastrophe erase
The careful outlines of the trust I pencilled in
For rainy days convenient faith, but tonight it’s wearing thin

So hold me tight you know that I can’t find the way

I should know by now that nothing's gonna scare you away
But all the while thoughts running wild with all the ways
I fail to measure up to expectations and keep you safe
Not sure I’ll have the strength for two in these darker days

Hold tight and you and I will remember the way

I should know by now the morning light is not far away
But these questions mark the story arc, reality gives way
To dreams simulating situations I can’t leave
Dragging out every doubt I thought I’d buried deep,

Hold tight and you and I will remember the way

Each night the darkened sky left us afraid
Your hand in mine crying as we prayed
But everytime we woke another day another grace
Another promise you kept safe

And see that
In the end we’re right back where we started
Never left unguarded to our fates

I should know by now but now and then my hand starts to shake
But it’s brighter now, were stepping off the edge of what’s been paved
