This Side of Brightness Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I sewed it up
Stitched all these dead end streets
Into the sewn up seams of my
Heartstrings unwind (Unwind)
Unwound
Like a petal pulled from an open flower surrounds
By fields where children sigh but don't make a sound
And don't

[Chorus]
Break it off
This searching for what we may never find
And that says it all
I hope that we will make it through

[Verse 2]
The heartbreak that comes
With just living through one day
All the good times that pass
All the friends we lose in a lifetime on our way

[Bridge]
Here in this life
We seem so lost
On this side of brightness
We don't know where to go

[Chorus]
Break it off
This searching for what we may never find
And that says it all
I hope that we will make it through
This night
