[Verse 1] As I stand here looking up at the sky All I can see is darkness smothering the stars Why is it everything so bright and beautiful Is always so distant and too far to hold? My lonely nights are here and my hearts slow to stop But it's okay Maybe I'm just not meant to feel that way [Chorus] As my casket is set down 6 feet underground I'm ready to move on and let it all go So I let myself fade away Cuz it's just better this way But then I hear a faint voice, it's too sweet to ignore Well why do I care? It's not like it's for me anyway Suddenly I'm out of the dark pit where I let it all out And I know I can't stay [Verse 2] Cuz nothing lasts forever when all you see and touch starts to decay I feel a tight embrace and its warmth takes away With a tender smile, all I know can't be for me As my heart stops and withers all the way Love has always had conditions and a price too heavy for me to pay I thought I had nothing left to give, but now it's like night and day You brought life out of me and told me it was okay I can't help to smile and want to live forever as long as you come with me and want me to stay [Chorus] With every step I'm taking away And the faster my heart beats I have the fear that it will all just go away And I'll fall harder than before As I've left to wither away Love has always had conditions and a price too heavy for me to pay I thought I had nothing left to give, but now it's like night and day You brought life out of me and told me it was okay I can't help to smile and want to live forever as long as you come with me and want me to stay [Bridge] Rather than fight it and forget it I think this time I'll stay Even if for just a moment I'd rather die all over than throw this all away If all of this is real It will all be worth the pain Cuz with our hands held together, you know that I'll stay And take your breath away Cause all you've shown me is what family is like Then I gladly rewrite our past and take away your pain I'll show you it's so real Without relying on words alone [Chorus] Love has always had conditions and a price too heavy for me to pay I thought I had nothing left to give, but now it's like night and day You brought life out of me and told me it was okay I can't help to smile and want to live forever as long as you come with me and want me to stay
