Love in itself is a ritual
That I won’t assume will wane Some people live for the aching Emotions that I can’t explain
Some choose to wait for the right time Bound by a buoyant view
Standing in strong opposition
As soon as I felt it I knew
The little words you say they help me But really I, I should have known When I’m left to my devices
In your arms where I belong
By your side
I’ll fight for romance
But I’m at war
With my commandments
In time you will find
That I will confess
But I’m at war
With my commandments
One of these days it will hit me Space is powerful thing
But to no avail, establish a need And slowly I start to concede, lord
If I were to fall to devotion
I’ll fall cuz it’s what I need Searching for something to believe
There are dangerous scenes that pull me down and fill my head
It’s the push and pull that I reconcile What would life be like if I had left it all unsaid?
I wanna find peace of mind
By your side
I’ll fight for romance
But I’m at war
With my commandments
In time you will find
That I will confess
But I’m at war
With my commandments
Time, Romance, War, Commandments
By your side
I’ll fight for romance
But I’m at war
With my commandments
In time you will find
That I will confess
But I’m at war
With my commandments

Verse 1
There’s a movement that’s been taking over lately
Though you understand that we’ve been here before
Your intentions kind but it don’t lead to safety
Consistency, action they're all we ask for
Chorus
I can’t hide (Do something that you can’t take back)
At least for moment I can’t hide (Do something that you can’t take back)
For more than day
It’s the rise, the weight
The loss, the names,
I can’t hide (Do something that you can’t take back)
From me
Verse 2
There’s a need for standing in no hesitation
There’s no use in hanging somewhere in between
Unless you make your own mistakes
You’ll never find out how much it takes for me
For you to do what you believe
When it’s time to show, we'll do our best with all we know
Chorus
I can’t hide (Do something that you can’t take back)
At least for moment I can’t hide (Do something that you can’t take back)
For more than day
It’s the rise, the weight
The loss, the names,
I can’t hide
(Do something that you can’t take back) from me
Bridge:
Listen we all go running
Said it all with a post and a button
You said it all that’s funny
If you need let the moment remind you
End Chorus:
Do something that you can’t take back (repeat)
Listen we all go running
Said it all with a post and a button
You said it all that’s funny
If you need let the moment remind you

Hmmm something I said
Hmmm something I said
Verse 1
I know you lie, I know you do
Deep down I wonder what am I to lose
Out of the lines, pulling away
We grow a little apart each day
Pre Chorus 1
If I’m all that you rely on then why do you
Let your memory fade, when I ask of you
Chorus
Remember why I’m still here
Trust me, I can love you less
Time it goes by like healer, lord
You can find you own way damn from here
If you weren’t broke where would you be?
Wasting my time for a make believe
The look in your eyes, asking what’s on my mind
Was it something that I said?
Post Chorus
Hmmm something I said
Hmmm something I said
Verse 2:
I called your name about a two dozen times
I know you heard me but you couldn’t even give sign
God knows I try, you think that you mean more to me
Before we cross a line, let us say what we mean
Pre Chorus 2
Come us walk the steps of my life
Tell me know where did we go wrong
If we have to walk a fine line
I’ll be gone
Chorus
Remember why I’m still here
Trust me, I can love you less
Time it goes by like healer, lord
You can find you own way damn from here
If you weren’t broke where would you be?
Wasting my time for a make believe
The look in your eyes, asking what’s on my mind
Was it something that I said?
Post Chorus
Hmmm something I said
Hmmm something I said
