take your sweet time don t forget to breathe shake your leaves but don t shake the tree i see you suffering but i don t see you laughing we got lovers in the war taking their time and so take your sweet time don t hurry up because of me it s all a mistake but it s one that i have to make life s too short to be in the fast lane i thought i heard you knocking or was that me your smile is violent i see you but do you see me take my heart because you can t just have a piece all we are we are we are is all we need i believe in you but i don t know how much i believe in me even if you could just breathe inside my mouth one more time i could feel you i could hold you up in my mind like i saw the light i am what i am and that s all you need to know as i place my guts on the floor and let you see it all i got more demons in my back than i got angels in my front and i know was that your voice i heard or was it just an echo i ve been stuck in the forest too long and i can t sing about anything else i ve got memories that have never even crossed my shelf and i hope you can die with me and i hope you can breathe easy the future is not what it seems but i hope we ve got songs to sing after the sticks click we all explode into one but we never know what s going to happen that s why we keep our eyes open such is life staring back at my hands terrified we can t close our eyes we can t close our minds we take off our hands we shake all of our feet we got lovers in the sea that i don t know but their dreams they can definitely sing it s been said keep moving on i guess that s it i ve got that don t mean anything to you but they mean so much to me we hold out our hands we hold all our dreams we ve got different thoughts it doesn t mean it makes it wrong it makes it right we can love each other we can love each other we can all just love each other i swear we can love each other we can love each other we can grab each other s hands we got songs that need to be sung and we got fights that need to be fought the fight of peace we can wage war against the war of hate at least in my dreams i still believe we can
