Back 2 Ten

Verse 1

Staring down the sink

Wondering when the enamel might crack and break

Flicker of a thought

Pulling at the loose threads in the sweater I wore

Counting the breaths I forgot

Every second feels like a chore

Pre-Chorus

Falling up the stairs again

Watching how the seasons bend

Can we make it back to ten

Chorus

Give me back the color in the frame

Give me back the sound

Tell me how to say my own name

Standing on the solid ground

Hold it in your palms

Keep me from the alarms

Find the way home

Find the way home

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Just keep on moving

Moving on

Verse 2

Ripping the tape off the cardboard box

Hiding the clocks so the ticking will stop right now

Half of me is looking for a reason to go

The other half is busy digging holes in the yard for a garden to grow

Picking at the scab of a secret I shouldn't know

Checking for a pulse when the power is low

Is it bitter

Is it sweet

Trying to keep my head when the world is at my feet

Pre-Chorus

Falling up the stairs again

Watching how the seasons bend

Can we make it back to ten

Chorus

Give me back the color in the frame

Give me back the sound

Tell me how to say my own name

Standing on the solid ground

Hold it in your palms

Keep me from the alarms

Find the way home

Find the way home

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Just keep on moving

Moving on

Bridge

Maybe the wreckage is part of the map

Maybe the poison is just in the tap

Open the door

Check the score

Don't want to fight a war no more

The light is thin but it's getting in

Through the cracks of where I've been

I'm breathing in

Breathing in

Chorus

Give me back the color in the frame

Give me back the sound

Tell me how to say my own name

Standing on the solid ground

Hold it in your palms

Keep me from the alarms

Find the way home

Find the way home

Chorus

Give me back the color in the frame

Give me back the sound

Tell me how to say my own name

Standing on the solid ground

Hold it in your palms

Keep me from the alarms

Find the way home

Find the way home

Drop

Find it

Find the way home
