If only life were a musical

My hand's still shakin', my mind's still racin' My heart's still breakin' in two I'm still changin', my friends stay patient My mother still calls for the news Isn't that enough?

'Cause if we don't leave this town We might never make it out

Telling myself I won't go there Oh, but I know that I won't care

Oh, it must be nice To love someone who lets you break them twice

Through the storm we reach the shore You give it all but I want more. And I'm waiting for you With or without you With or without you, ah, ah I can't live With or without you

But I don't want some pretty face To tell me pretty lies All I want is someone to believe Honesty is such a lonely word

Once I thought my innocence was gone. Now I know that happiness goes on.

You’ll be proud of that skin full of scars

Can't see the silver in the lines. Can't make the best of a bad time. I blame the world.

What if I'm someone I don't want around?

And isn't it just so pretty to think All along there was some Invisible string Tying you to me?

Up till now the next step was a question of how I never thought it was a question of whether

And I’ve been trying to find a reason to get up Been trying to find a reason for this stuff In my bedroom and my closet, the baggage in my heart is still so dark

You could be so happy, then it suddenly turns. No one can explain it and you don't have the words. I can see you're trying, I can see that it hurts. I can see you're trying, I can see that it hurts. Just take a breath, love Fill your lungs up Rest your head, there's no sense in losing sleep. You can break down. Let your worst out. Lose your temper, but you're not losing me.
