lyrics

I fall into doubt,
carrying what I know in a chest weighed in hope.
That you'll fall into love
with a boy who is lost
and can't offer you much but his heart.

Oh it's amazing and it's yours for the taking
I'll part...you from the darkness
in an all coated world full of thorns.

I stood at cliffs hanging high
with rocks down below,
spelling out, "You're not worth her time."
And now I know those were words of a fool
cause I have so much for you, like my heart.

Oh it's amazing and it's yours for the taking
I'll part...you from the darkness
in an all coated world full of thorns.

I know I'm walking lousy and maps I touch and fold have been bleeding the ink right off the page. And I know I'm probably lacking the stars you used to dream of as you were lying on your back in a daze. And I lay my life down as a promise you can bet I will fight. So just take, just take my hand and lie down next to me as I am. As I am.

Save me now, he said, save me now and fight the fallen, deadened of shallow love. Have me now, I said have me now and right the very fear I've been wading in. If you cannont show this, you cannot hold this oversized swollen heart. If you cannot show this, you cannot hold this oversized swollen heart. But if you can, then you can...you can hold my heart.
