Steady

I saw the signs and took my chances
I pulled the vines and broke the branches
Your heart was mine, I thought that I could hold you
Steady, steady

In the madness, watered the roots that you had planted
Deep in my heart I thought that I could hold you
Steady, oh steady

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Falling from the highest height
And nothing would've made us ready
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
As the light was washing from my eyes
I swore that I could hold you steady

Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you, I can't hold you
Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you, I can't hold you

Wanted to heal the earth around you
Seasons had changed, I never left you
So why did we freeze out in the sun in silence
Trying, was trying

Took my chances, lost in the darkened circumstances
Carried the weight until it was too heavy
Heavy, oh heavy

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Falling from the highest height
And nothing would've made us ready
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
As the light was washing from my eyes
I swore that I could hold you steady

Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you, I can't hold you
Now I know you're not the one for me
I swore that I could hold you steady
Now I know you're not the one for me
I can't hold you, I can't hold you

Tried to mend what's broken
Walked the wire with dignity
As my eyes are looking into the sun
I'm facing a new reality

I tried to mend what's broken
Walked the wire with dignity
As my eyes are looking into the sun
I'm facing a new reality

Oh I tried to mend what's broken
Walked the wire with dignity
As my eyes are looking into the sun
I'm facing a new reality
