Blue Skies & Dark Spells Lyrics

There's a chance

That there are blue skies above the cloud

And somewhere the sun is up

There's a will

To fight and courage to lose the war

And a tear for your pathetic battle cry

I just need a little time to lick my wounds

Or to grasp at knotted binds of rope

With every closing chapter, a new book can begin

I can escape with death, can I escape with hope?

Hope

I took a knife

To myself to cut out a better man

But can one carve a way to live from a way to die?

These dark spells

haven't consumed me yet

These wounds can heal if I just cover my scars up

Maybe I don't have the nerve to see it through

Maybe I just don't have the heart

I don't know if love is enough of a reason

But it seems like a good place to start

You can't enjoy the light if you can't endure the weight

You can't enjoy the light if you can't endure the weight

I'm just a part of a system

A system I don't understand

Just a part of a problem

A problem I can't comprehend

Though my hands won't stop shaking, at least I can still walk

And with every step I'm taking, I'll just keep trudging on

But when, again, I collapse onto shuddering knees

Reach out with your fingertips, please take hold and carry me

Please take hold and carry me

And for a short while, we can ride the same trajectory

As the cycle loops its way back to restart

As the abyss begins to stare back at me

We can fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart

Fall together rather than fall apart
