lyrics

(verse 1)
You pick up the world
And put it on your shoulders
You open up the window
But then complain that it’s colder

And when I offer to share the weight
It’s all the same, always the same
We get colder

I’m unavailable, burying what I’m feeling
I’m overrated and medicated, I'm separated

And when you offer to share the weight
It’s all the same, always the same
We get colder
We get colder

(chorus)
Break off the branches
Lay down the kindling
I’ll get the matches
You get the gasoline
Let’s make a fire
Let’s make a fire
Let’s make a fire

(verse 2)
I could be standing there bleeding out on the floor
Sometimes I wonder if you care anymore

And when you offer to share the weight
It’s all the same, always the same
We get colder

I don’t wanna learn this the hard way
I don’t wanna do this the hard way
But I can only think of one thing we can do

Chorus

(bridge)
Cry for me now, don’t let me bleed anymore
I don’t know how but I have to leave, while staying
Lied to myself but the truth is out from the core
Inside out, learning how to breathe
Learning how to break…

Chorus
