To what advantage is a man who gains the world;
He holds a smile while inside his heart is cold.
Here am I, standing in the rain all alone;
Here I am, I’m waiting for the strength to let go.
Chorus:
So I lose myself and close my eyes ‘til the world begins to fade.
Cause this broken shell is half alive and there’s no one else to blame.
So I finally think it’s time to disengage and never turn away.
Amidst the hesitation trying to look ahead;
Beyond this mass confusion your face appears instead.
And just when my head is held up high I fall again;
That’s when I’m reminded of your love that has no end.
Bridge:
Go on, go on, "It’s time to break away," I keep telling myself
Go on, go on, I can finally separate these strings that hold me down;
I’m finally found.
So I lose myself and close my eyes ‘til the world begins to fade.
Cause this broken shell is half alive and there’s no one else to blame.
