Coming Back For You

Verse 1

I carved your name into the plaster

Then watched the ceiling start to crack

You said the quiet was the answer

I built a fortress out of that

Pre-Chorus

And every promise turned to rust

Every angel turned to stone

Chorus

Wake me when the worst is over

Wake me when the winter's through

I have been the ghost you wanted

Now I'm coming back for you

Post-Chorus

(Wake me, wake me)

Coming back for you

(Wake me, wake me)

Coming back for you

Verse 2

I learned to pray inside a hallway

Where no one ever said my name

You fed me sorrow like a sermon

And called it mercy all the same

Pre-Chorus

So bury every word I said

Bury every bone I broke

Chorus

Wake me when the worst is over

Wake me when the winter's through

I have been the ghost you wanted

Now I'm coming back for you

Post-Chorus

(Wake me, wake me)

Coming back for you

(Wake me, wake me)

Coming back for you

Bridge

I don't need your absolution

I don't need your hollow crown

I am rising from the ruin

I am burning this one down

Chorus

Wake me when the worst is over

Wake me when the winter's through

I have been the ghost you wanted

Now I'm coming back for you

Post-Chorus

(Wake me, wake me)

Coming back for you

(Wake me, wake me)

Coming back for you
