Waking up is harder than it seems
Wandering through these empty rooms of dusty books and quiet dreams
Pictures on the mantle, speak your name
softly like forgotten tunes, just outside the sound of pain
Weren't we like a pair of thieves
with tumbled locks and broken codes
You can not take that from me
my small reprieves, your heart of gold
Weren't we like a battlefield, locked inside a holy war
You're lovin' my due diligence
The only thing worth fighting for
Change will come to those who have no fear
But I'm not her, and you never were the kind who kept a rulebook near
What I said was never, what I meant
And now you've seen my world in flames
my shadow songs, my deep regret
Weren't we like a pair of thieves
with tumbled locks and broken codes
You can not take that from me
my small reprieves, your heart of gold
Weren't we like a battlefield, locked inside a holy war
You're lovin' my due diligence
The only thing worth fighting for
The only thing worth fighting for
Waking up is harder than it seems
Wandering through these empty rooms of dusty books and quiet dreams
Pictures on the mantle, speak your name
softly like forgotten tunes, just outside the sound of pain
Weren't we like a pair of thieves
with tumbled locks and broken codes
You can not take that from me
my small reprieves, your heart of gold
Weren't we like a battlefield, locked inside a holy war
You're lovin' my due diligence
The only thing worth fighting for
Change will come to those who have no fear
But I'm not her, and you never were the kind who kept a rulebook near
What I said was never, what I meant
And now you've seen my world in flames
my shadow songs, my deep regret
Weren't we like a pair of thieves
with tumbled locks and broken codes
You can not take that from me
my small reprieves, your heart of gold
Weren't we like a battlefield, locked inside a holy war
You're lovin' my due diligence
The only thing worth fighting for
The only thing worth fighting for
