renaissance

This is my renaissance, this is my one response

This is the way I'll say I love you

This is my second chance, this is my one romance

This is the cutting line on which I stand to show youIt happened fast in a flash, just this evening

As I hit the gas, horn blast, brakes were screaming

As the car crashed, broken glass, broke my dreaming

I hit the dash, so fast my ears are ringingMy sister's on the right side just slightly leaning

I grabbed her hand hard until she started breathing

My brother's in the back, jaw cracked from the beating

The breath in my chest has slipped and I'm sinkingBlinking through diamond spider webs of cracked glass

I'm trying to remember all the words you said in the past

Through the ash, siren screams and red beams

I hear you sing softly to meI can be the wall when you fall down

Find me on the rocks when you break down

I heard it in the song when you call out

But I got to say now it's got to changeI can be the wall when you fall down

Find me on the rocks when you break down

I heard it in the song when you call out

But I got to say now it's got to change right timeThis is my broken heart, this is my bleeding start

This is the way I've come to know you

This is my winding road, this is my way back home

This is the narrow door you know that I will walk throughI got a letter today of why she went away

She said, "It's better this way, you knew I never could stay

Half empty closets and frames, all that's left to my name"

As she left in the rain and left my heart on a chainThree years I've built this two-face tower for hours on a lease

You gave me one yellow flower that said rest in peace

In pieces I've broken open to think too much or just enough

Alone to trust midst the rubble and the dustHumbled, it took this much to break down and understand

Spent my life this far on castles made of sand

Tossed in the breakers in the palm of your hand

Now I can finally standI can be the wall when you fall down

Find me on the rocks when you break down

I heard it in the song when you call out

But I got to say now it's got to changeI can be the wall when you fall down

Find me on the rocks when you break down

I heard it in the song when you call out

But I got to say now it's got to changeI can be the wall when you fall down

Find me on the rocks when you break down

I heard it in the song when you call out

But I got to say now it's got to changeI can be the wall when you fall down

Find me on the rocks when you break down

I heard it in the song when you call out

But I got to say now it's got to change

I can be the wall, I heard it in the song

And I can be the wall, I heard it in the songThis is my renaissance, this is my one response

This is the way I'll say I love you
