lyrics

I'll never let you go
I'll never leave this town
I'll never walk away
Or abdicate this crown
Yes it's a town of thorns
I can't be on my own
If I bleed again
I could obtain it all
We trace our paths to here
Using only a vow
You should have pressured me
But now that pressures mine
I wake to no one near
Only the constant thud
All I was meant to be
Got washed out in the flood
Of children crying loud
In complex melody
We brought them to this world
We made them wild and free
To make the same mistakes
And sing their own sad songs
Now with each chord that play
We sadly sing along
I guess the lesson here
Is treat your heart with pride
And if you fall in love
Be sure to hold her tight
And if she runs away
Into another's arms
You gotta stand alone
So build your empire far

Let's set our hearts on fire
Let's set our hearts on fire
