Looking for reasons to believe instead of doubt
Weigh in instead of out
There’s gotta be a reason
Looking for answers for the horror and the pain
When they both start to feel the same
There’s gotta be a reason

Only one breath at a time
She said
All my tears have fallen on the floor
She said
I’ve never felt it rain like this before
She said
I’ll sing these black-eyed blues into the storm instead
I’ve been waiting for the new eyes to arrive
One breath at a time
One breath at a time

The kings and queens of little dreams
Get stuck inside a nightmare sometimes
Sometimes
And the fairytales she played
Seemed so far away from where she was tonight
Sometimes

I hear her talking to herself in bed
All my tears have fallen on the floor
She said
I’ve never felt it rain like this before
She said
I’ll sing these black-eyed blues into the storm instead
I’ve been waiting for the new eyes to arrive
One breath at a time
One breath at a time

I’m holding on to you
And I won’t let go
You’re the one that I can’t lose
And I won’t let go
You’re the only thing thats true in this whole world
Of black-eyed blues and disillusioned points of view
And I won’t let go

The pain feels like a knife
But I’m not giving up on life

All my tears have fallen on the floor
She said
I’ve never felt it rain like this before
She said
I’ll sing these black-eyed blues into the storm instead
I’ll be waiting for the new eyes to arrive
(She said, she said)

All my tears have fallen on the floor
She said
I’ve never felt it rain like this before
She said
I’ll sing these black-eyed blues into the storm instead
I’ve been waiting for the new eyes to arrive
One breath at a time
One breath at a time
