Empty houses, darkened streets.
We leave to know what we don’t know,
And find the answers that we have to seek.

They let us go without goodbyes.
We’re off to seek a greater prize;
Better a life spent searching,
Than a life not spent at all.

When we began our dreams shined bright,
But they won’t keep us warm tonight.
The old flames all die,
And the cold tears at our eyes.

But we’ve fallen down, so we’ll sleep for now,
And wake up when its morning.
Our tears soak the ground, and trickle down to the dead,
But we can’t join them yet.

We all came this far.
We all ran from something.
We don’t have to go on,
If tonight you’d rather hold me.

Our broken lives were stretching thin.
We sought relief brought from the end;
A new beginning was our only hope.

Our shadows followed as we ran.
We can’t escape the darkened lands;
We’ve lived too long in cities without light.

The shouts keep us awake at night.
The scenes imprinted on our eyes.
The silence drives us mad,
And the light reveals our lies.

But we’ve fallen down, so we’ll sleep for now,
And wake up when its morning.
Our tears soak the ground, and trickle down to the dead,
But we can’t join them yet.

We all came this far.
We all ran from something.
We don’t have to go on,
If tonight you’d rather hold me.

I don’t wanna wait.
I don’t wanna wait for this.
I don’t wanna wait.
I don’t wanna wait for this.
I don’t wanna wait.
I don’t wanna wait for this.
I don’t wanna wait.
I don’t wanna wait for this.

We all came this far.
We all ran from something.
We don’t have to go on,
If tonight you’d rather hold me.

We all came this far.
We all ran from something.
We don’t have to go on,
If tonight you’d rather hold me.

I have come this far.
I have ran my whole life.
I know I have to go on,
But tonight I’d rather hold you.
