Come on in Seat yourself and let us begin Take it in Find your place We'll welcome you in to our our arms Though it might take a while I'm sure you'll find your way And if it takes a while You'll have a place to stay And don't be trampled on By all the things they say Don't let it get you down When things don't go your way 'Cause we'll be right here We'll be right here to stay Maybe some day When we've got it all together Maybe it'll be Just a little easier to breathe And can we save that place in time? So we can give it all away And don't be trampled on By all the things they say Don't let it get you down When things don't go your way 'Cause we'll be right here We'll be right here to stay Come on in Seat yourself and let us begin Take it in Find your place We'll welcome you in to our our arms

What are we doing here anyway? It's an impossibility For us to have ended anywhere else Now we draw the curtains down And all around And no one can see in this room We've locked ourselves in Only one condition to surrender That we both bow our heads And admit that all has been done What are we to say? That we don't know how to handle it? What are we to do? Just move on like it never happened and... Seen in in your eyes An uncertainty That wasn't there a month ago But now it grows Across your field of view Certainly I sensed it But rallying against it Would serve as no defense To our decline What are we to say? That we don't know how to handle it? What are we to do? Just move on like it never happened and...

Get up, get out It's not the day to stay in bed Rise and reclaim What was taken away I know you're feeling like you just can't win They've got you feeling You've committed some sin You've got to know that you can Change your situation It'll take some time but you'll get there There's nothing in your way That you can't bear And even when the road seems too long Well you shouldn't give in just yet So you started But you cannot see the end Before you break You'll see just how far you can bend In a while you'll find it getting So much easier It'll take some time but you'll get there There's nothing in your way That you can't bear And even when the road seems too long Well you shouldn't give in just yet What of all the times Where you couldn't stand? When no one was around To lend you a hand? How do you get through When you go it alone? It'll take some time but you'll get there There's nothing in your way That you can't bear And even when the road seems too long Well you shouldn't give in just yet

Snow outside my window Coating all the trees Covering the streets below You can hear it blowing in the wind Drifting off of rooftops Swirling in the air all around It's a whisper as if coming in a dream Slips inside your head and offers no retreat It changes everything Blows through the city In wave after wave And makes it all clean again

Whatever it was for It doesn't work anymore What was the point of it, really? To be the ruin of us, nearly To take it out, and put it down It was the best next step What would we have done If it all fell apart?

To be the ruin of us, nearly To take it out, and put it down It was the best next step What would we have done If it all fell apart? It's not that I don't love you, I do It's just that I'm not in love with you But I can't even say that with a straight face It's something I keep telling myself To get through the day To take it out, and put it down It was the best next step What would we have done If it all fell apart? I keep on hiding Deep down inside where nobody can see But I'm not alone in here I still have to get you out To feel some peace To take it out, and put it down It was the best next step What would we have done If it all...
