(Verse I)

When the words run out

Stolen by regrets

And nothing’s left to say

Except sorry I guess

I try to step up

And be a better man

But so far It seems

I’m doing the worst I can

 

(Pre-Chorus)

I wish I knew how to make things right

Through every restless day and sleepless night

I can’t stand hurting you this way, I don’t want to fight

So here it goes, here it goes

 

(Chorus I)

You’re my universe

You’re every constellation

Shooting through my sky

Screaming for reconciliation

When I know that I’m to blame

The mirror’s image filled with shame

I keep stumbling on the words to say

I just need you to stay

 

(Verse II)

Sometimes I’m a challenge

My head is a mess

Filled with so many questions

That I cannot digest

If the path is straight and narrow

Then I’m every bend

Curving my way to losing

My best friend

 

(Pre-Chorus)

 

(Chorus II)

You’re my universe

You’re my every breath

I was my own worst enemy

Before we ever met

When I know that I’m wrong

Singing the same old song

I just need to try to find a way

To get you to stay

 

(Bridge)

I know that I’m a handful

This I will admit

All I know is I’m thankful

That you put up with it

You deserve better than me

Now knowing that ain’t easy

‘Cuz of you I have grown

With you I am reborn

 

 

(Chorus I)
