lyrics

Sometimes I get lost in myself
I get confused and have to stop for help
I look outside and see you're still here
There's no good reason to stay but say you will

Every island needs a storm
There's no shelter here but the fire is warm
I can't promise you will never be alone
But I guarantee this will always be your home

What we take for granted
Becomes apparent in the panic when it's gone
And all that's left is a couple songs

I'm half-hearted and all to blame
There is no history just mistakes
Please take a chance and say you will
