Verse 1
I’m not the chain
That’s holding you back
I’m Just a relay
giving you some slack
In case you fall
You won’t hit the ground
I’ll be your safety net
If you go down
(Time Goes)
Out the fucking window when you
Got nothing to do
You know it's true
(Don’t go)
Thinking this was all for show
I hope you know
I care about you
Chorus
I’ve never seen
A Guardian Angel
But I guarantee
If yours ever fell
I’d be the first
To take his place
Even for just
A smile on your face
Verse 2
Your fire has gone out like a candle in the wind and
You’ll need some kind of beacon to pull yourself back in
Come closer to me and soak up my flame
If I needed you you would do the same
Life’s a game, so arbitrary
Break the rules
Go on and dare me
(I know)
It can get so scary
If you ever feel sick
Call me an apothecary
Chorus
I’ve never seen
A Guardian Angel
But I guarantee
If yours ever fell
I’d be the first
To take his place
Even for just
A smile on your face
Bridge
I’ve seen too many
people lose hope
I know you’re afraid of
Getting too close
Whatever happened
It’s all in the past
I’ll show you how
to make this last
Chorus
I’ve never seen
A Guardian Angel
But I guarantee
If yours ever fell
I’d be the first
To take his place
Even for just
A smile on your face

Verse 1
We were all 18 and running free
There was no place we wouldn’t go
But with a season came the change
There were places we still needed to go but you left us all alone
We wouldn’t let that slow us down.
Chorus
We’re not afraid
We keep moving on
We’ll drive all night
Yea we’ll drive all night
You’re still stuck in your driveway with him and your stereo
Verse 2
We grew up and left that fucking town
Cause that place couldn’t tie us down
But each new year you’re still the same
There are places we still need to go but you’ve hit cruise control
Chorus
We’re not afraid
We keep moving on
We’ll drive all night
Yea we’ll drive all night
You’re still stuck in your driveway with him and your stereo
Bridge
You turn it up and sing along
But you’ll never have a clue
Listening to the same old songs
You should try something new
Chorus
We’re not afraid
We keep moving on
We’ll drive all night
Yea we’ll drive all night
You’re still stuck in your driveway with him and your stereo

I never knew why you walked away
Was I not good enough
No matter how hard I tried
I couldn’t get you to stay
Our friendship couldn’t last
We were a balancing act
But I was always on the sinking side.
I always walked the extra mile
You couldn’t see what was in front of your eyes
I didn’t think it would come to this
I’m singing to you for the last time
I guess I’m finally moving on
Now you’ve got nothing to say
Don’t worry I think that’s fine
It wouldn’t change anything
Don’t talk just save your breath
Your confessions will not last
I hope that I’m always on your mind
I always walked the extra mile
You couldn’t see what was in front of your eyes
I didn’t think it would come to this
I’m singing to you for the last time

Verse 1
It's six am and the sky is bleeding red
You're in my head so much I see you here in bed.
This silence is heaven and it's hell
This silence can save me and it can kill me as well.
Chorus 1
I'm doing better than I have been
The voice in my head is being kept at bay
I'm covered in scars that can't be seen
So black out and start a new day
Verse 2
The sun is fading and the sky is going dark
You are finding it harder and harder to sleep
there's a pounding coming from your heart
Just have faith you'll be safe with me.
Chorus 2
I'm doing better than I have been
The voice in my head is being kept at bay
My invisible scars are beginning to fade
2x Rest easy tomorrow is a new day
Bridge
Soon everything will be fine
Sweety just hold on tight
Tonight everything will be fine
Believe in me.
