EEverythAing that IE
Ever stAart seems Eto
Have its Aday, then Eit
Falls apaArt like iEt's
Almost gAood and itE's
Almost rAight butE I
MiAss the mark anEd I
LoEse the fiAght
[Pre-Chorus 1]
SoF#, why-y-yE do I-I-I evAen try-y-y
[Chorus]
To keep my head held higAh E
Arms open wiAde E
Heart full, clear eyAes E
If I livC#e, if I dieA
The damage is done
Why even try-Ey-y?
[Verse 2]
People Asay some thEings

The way they aAre is thEe

DisaAgree but I'm daC#ncing with the fire
And the fAire keeps burning mEe

[Verse 3]
Fragile hAearts in thEese
Fragile tiAmes E
Often brAeak before thEey
Ever finAd that tEhere's
Hope insAide of thEis shadowlAand
Written in the C#sky and stone and Aprinted oEn our hands
[Pre-Chorus 2]
SF#o why-y-y dEo I-I-I aAlways
MeasAure the truth with the
WeiEght of a lie? Nothing's
BrokAen inside of me for good
I'm Ehealing in time the way I shouAld
[Chorus 2]
I canA see it if I keC#ep my head held hi-iAgh E
Arms open wAide E
Heart full, clear eAyes E
All the doC#ubts, all the liAes
Are too heavy to hold so why even tryA-y-y? E(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Outro]
Whoo! You don't have to do this aAll on Eyour own (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
This fragile life that you C#hold (Oh-oh-oh-Aoh-oh)
Is too heavy to carry alone so why even tAry?E (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
MAmm,E all of the doubts, all of the lies (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
AAllE of the fears, all of the tears tears that you've cried
Are tooN.C. heavy to carry alone
So why evN.C.en try?
