Steady

I saw the signs
And took my chances
I pulled the vines
And broke the branches
Your heart was mine
I thought that I could hold you
Steady, steady
In the madness
Watered the roots that you had planted
Deep in my heart
I thought that I could hold you
Steady, steady

Falling from the highest height
And nothing would have made us ready
As the light was washing from my eyes
I swore that I could hold you steady

Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you
I can't hold you
Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you
I can't hold you

I wanted to heal
The Earth around you
Seasons had changed
I never left you
So why did we freeze
Out in the sun in silence
Trying was trying
Took my chances
Lost in the darkened circumstances
Carried the weight
Until it was too heavy, heavy, heavy

Falling from the highest height
And nothing would have made us ready
As the light was washing from my eyes
I swore that i could hold you steady

Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you
I can't hold you
Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you
I can't hold you

Tried to mend what's broken
Walked the wire with dignity
As my eyes are looking into the sun
I'm facing a new reality

Tried to mend what's broken
Walked the wire with dignity
As my eyes are looking into the sun
I'm facing a new reality

Tried to mend what's broken
Walked the wire with dignity
As my eyes are looking into the sun
I'm facing a new reality
