Verse 1
Abandon me!
I was never one to hold out well under pressure.
And I hope you can find me.
I've gotta find myself before I can move on this time.
Can we penetrate the barricades created by me?
We know our mouths aren't locked through forced doors...
Chorus
And I can feel the tension in your words,
Screaming for me
To understand what you've been thinking.
There's a cloud casting o'er your head.
Can't see anything clear;
You're only seeing who you were.
Verse 2
Too far to reach I'll say...
She's on the tips of my fingers.
Don't let her fall!
There will be no re-turn...
[palm-muted]
The burdened act which brought
Us to a halt will some-day make us stronger!
Chorus
And I can feel the tension in your words,
Screaming for me
To understand what you've been thinking.
There's a cloud casting o'er your head.
Can't see anything clear;
You're only seeing who you were.
Verse 3
Clouds casting over your head;
Self portraits of what you once were...
You once were...
Clouds casting over your head;
Self-portraits of what you once were...
You once were!
She will break and shatter.
There will be no return.
Hold on tight.
Bridge
Lets stop everything;
Exchange all that we know... D5x8
Its much better without having gravity holding you down from the air.

Stand up for what you once were. [This is my time]
Our time to make the changes that we want to make real.
Take action, action!
Stand up for what you once were.
(This is) our time
