I wish I could do better by you
'Cause that's what you deserve
You sacrifice so much of your life
In order for this to work
While I'm off chasing my own dreams

And I awoke
Only to find that my arms were empty
Through this night, it seems that you were with me
And now my dreams are not what they're meant to be
And I am all alone

Well, I've been down to Georgia, I've seen the streets in the West
I've driven down the 90, hell, I've seen America's best
I've been through the Rockies, well, I've seen Saskatoon
I've driven down the Highway 1, just hopin' that I'd see you soon
'Cause I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home

I heard the church bells from afar. And we found each other in the dark. And when the smoke does finally pass, we will rise above all the ash.
Chorus: Cause we're gonna live (X 9) at last.
So bright, the flames burn in the heart, that we found each other in the dark. My peace, out in the wilderness, we are fighting to survive and convalesce
Chorus: We're gonna live (X 9) like the rest.
Feel the blacks of these waters, and the cold lonely air. On the rock restless seas, the vessel in deep disrepair. And I swore they started singing, but then come, rejoice. I can still hear your voice.

What if I can't be all that you need me to be? We've got a good thing goin', we have some promises to keep. But my addiction, it can be such a detriment. Please believe in this my dear, I am more than penitent.
What if everything's just the way that it will be? Could it be that I am meant to cause you all this grief? My warships' are lying off the coast of your delicate heart and my aim is set in true, as it's been right from the start.
CHORUS: There's a degree of difficulty in dealing with me. From my haunted past, comes a daunting task of living through memories. If we could just hang a mirror on the bedroom wall, stare into the past and forget it all.
So when we leave, be a quick, midnight escape. We'll disconnect ourselves from all of yesterday. I'll dig for water and fashion our very own wishing well. Then we'll throw our coins down hoping to rid us of this little hell.
CHORUS: There's a degree of difficulty in dealing with me. From my haunted past, comes a daunting task of living through memories. If we could just hang a mirror on the bedroom wall, stare into the past and forget it all.
