Breathe Through the Ruins

[Verse 1] I watched the years go passing by, With unanswered questions in my eyes. I reached for something I could hold, But every promise turned to stone. And all the things we thought were true Have slowly changed their point of view. I wonder how we came this far, And lost the way to where we are. [Verse 2] We turn away, we look aside, We learn to live with what we hide. The same mistakes, the same refrain, A different face, a familiar pain. How long before we understand The cost of what we leave unmanned? How much of life must slip away Before we choose another way? [Chorus] Let it come, let it be known, We were never meant to stand alone. There is something left to save, Something living through the ache. I can feel it, I can feel it, Though the world keeps turning cold. Breathe again, breathe again, There is more than we have known. [Verse 3] I have worn the face they gave me, I have spoken words untrue. I have watched the years diminish What I thought I always knew. But somewhere in the stillness, Past the things we can't undo, A small conviction keeps returning, There is more that we can do. [Bridge] If we could see What we have become, Would we turn away Or begin again? If we could feel What we have denied, Would we find the strength To change our lives? [Final Chorus] Let it come, let it be known, We were never meant to stand alone. There is something left to save, Something living through the ache. I can feel it, I can feel it, Like a pulse that won't let go. Breathe again, breathe again, There is still a way to grow. [Outro] Breathe again... Let the old ways go. Breathe again... There's more than we know.
