lyrics

Yes I've got the potential to hurt you, but I promise I never will
When the dark makes you nervous I'll protect you, and I'll keep you safe until
The world stops holding fear
I'll keep you locked in here

I would sing it from my heart but my heart stopped beating
I would tell you all my dreams but I've not been sleeping
Now I'm doing all I can not to fall again tonight
I would focus on the pain but I just don't feel it
I would promise you my soul but I went and sold it
Now I'm doing all I can not to fall again tonight

Yes we've got the potential to be something, but we love to destroy ourselves
When the chance is presented we ignore it and end up with just regrets
The fights we long to win
We keep our cards close in
