[Verse 1]
If I could hold the world in my hands
Keep it warm, protect it from harm
How would it be?
If I could make the fairy tales true
Through the years and without tears
What should it be?
[Pre-Chorus]
Why do we have to have dark
To see the light
To feel the pain of mistakes
To know what's right?
[Chorus]
It's like touching a flame
But I can't stop myself
Like jumping off cliffs
When I know what's below
Does it stop me?
I don't think so
[Verse 2]
If I could calm the storms in the seas
If I could have a touch with God-seers
What would it be?
If I could smile and say we're okay
Just a joke, nothing's broken
What would it be?
[Pre-Chorus]
Why do we have to have dark
To see the light
To feel the pain of mistakes
To learn what's right?
[Chorus]
It's like living a lie when you're hiding the truth
Like pretending a smile when we just wanna cry
Does it stop me?
Just for a while
[Bridge]
Why do we have to have dark
To see the light
To feel the pain of mistakes
To learn what's right?
[Chorus]
It's like living a lie when you're hiding the truth
Like pretending a smile when we just wanna cry
Does it stop me?
Just for a while
It's like living a lie when you're hiding the truth
Like pretending a smile when we just wanna die
Does it stop me?
Just for a while
