[Verse 1]
Lights out, a trailblaze
The unsaid silently ricochets
Don't mean what we're sayin'
But it hurts like we do
The blind faith, the hollow
Keep us aligned, they make us crazier too
You needed in me, I needed in you
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause in the madness there is a perfection
Where do you end, where do I begin?
You were my broken imperfect reflection
The kiss on my skin
[Chorus]
And I know, that if we are
Shut out of paradise, for all it was
It was never for you and I
Heaven is here in the wreckage
All that is broken, but all that is true
I know I found it in my love for you
[Post-Chorus]
Let me love you as you are
Let me love you as you are
It's not a cruel trick of the heart
[Verse 2]
'Cause your heart is pure gold
You see in me what I keep covered and close
You never push it, but I know that you do
My head down, eyes low
How could I leave I would be broken in two
Give me freedom, that leads me to you
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause in the madness there is a perfection
Where do you end, where do I begin?
You were my broken imperfect reflection
The kiss on my skin
[Chorus]
And I know, that if we are
Shut out of paradise, for all it was
It was never for you and I
Heaven is here in the wreckage
All that is broken, but all that is true
I know I found it in my love for you
[Post-Chorus]
Let me love you as you are
Let me love you as you are
It's not a cruel trick of the heart
A cruel trick of the heart
[Chorus]
And I know, that if we are
Shut out of paradise, for all it was
It was never for you and I
Heaven is here in the wreckage
All that is broken, but all that is true
I know I found it in my love for you
[Outro]
Let me love you as you are
Let me love you as you are
It's not a cruel trick of the heart
A cruel trick of the heart
