Weight of days lost holding you down
You'll look for me, but I wont be found
The blue birds flutter in my chest
Oh, they want to sing
You'll have to break me open to hear anything
Before the world dies at my door

[Chorus]
I'll break the sky, for you and I are going no where
Kiss good-bye a dozen times before we give them
Why do I need anyone else?
When I can break the sky myself

Won't be haunted by dreams I've deferred
Won't set my heart frozen in amber
The love you always seem to find is syrupy sweet
One taste and you've made up your mind
Too ripe to eat
Before the world dies at my door

[Chorus]

Fear will hold you back
If you believe in that
Fear will hold back
If you believe in that
Fear will hold you back
If you believe in that
Fear will hold you back
If you believe in that

I'll break the sky for
You and I are going no where
Kiss good-bye a dozen times
Before we give them
Why do I need anyone else?
Why do I need anyone?

[Chorus]
