The Innocent Ones - Hidden in Plain View

Long goodbyes and second chances

Forgiving all we fight for, forgetting all we lose

Cause we’re losing it all the way things happen

Doing all we do to fill up the quiet

Break the awkward silence consuming our lives

We’re spending our time keeping our distance

And speaking trivial, and trite

And I’ll find some way to cut myself open, over and over again

And I’ll find some way to bury it all

And so let’s be honest because I am through holding my breath as my lungs

breathe for you

The air is too thin inside this room

I need this like the water in my lungs

The drowning in silence, biting my restless tongue

Because we’re too consumed, too shallow

Playing the victims, playing the innocent ones

And I’ll find some way to cut myself open, over and over again

And I’ll find some way to bury it all

And so let’s be honest because I am through holding my breath as my lungs

breathe for you

The air is too thin inside this room

(I'm taking my last breathe for you, this life is leaving)

And so let’s be honest because I am through breaking my heart as my veins bleed

for you

The air is too thin inside this room

(So go, breathe in the air, leave me gasping for air, so go breathe in

everything I am)

(And so let’s be honest because I am through holding my breath as my lungs

breathe for you)
