Staring at the places between our flaws
It's easier to breathe
Throws the attention from me
No honour in hurting hold your head high
You won't lose as no one is you
Round the night goes
Will you forgive my last post
If you can learn to let it go
We could let our light glow
What are we hiding for hiding for hiding for
What we are is stars
What are we hiding for hiding for hiding for
What we are is stars
We're stars
We're stars
Normality's mythology holding us back
We our cheating ourselves as we keep on
Trying to be perfect
What's the excuse because
Our time's for us
What are we hiding for hiding for hiding for
What we are is stars
What are we hiding for hiding for hiding for
What we are is stars
We're stars
We're stars
What we are is burning
Holding back and holding in
There's no laws I've missed
I've been like this from start
Now i'll force it apart
Force it apart
Force it apart
Force it apart
What are we
What are we
What are we
What are we
What are we hiding for hiding for hiding for
What we are is stars
What are we hiding for hiding for hiding for
What we are is stars
We're stars
We're stars
We're stars

You never speak the truth
Were you made for me to lose
So take my oxygen
I'm pushing it in
Like a religion
There's so much that I gave up for you
I thought you were somebody that I looked up to
We're not breathing in
No one's breathing in
Will you give up
Such a pretty little thing
You're such a pretty little warning
Just a pretty little sin
Will you give up
Such a pretty little thing
Such a pretty little warning
Just a pretty little sin
What are your faults
That made me run away
There's a limit to enough
So tell me
You don't want me to stay
You caught me
Colliding erasing
And I made you
Colder than porcelain
There's so much that I gave up for you
I thought you were somebody that I looked up to
We're not breathing in
No one's breathing in
Will you give up
Such a pretty little thing
You're such a pretty little warning
Just a pretty little sin
Will you give up
Such a pretty little thing
You're such a pretty little warning
Just a pretty little sin

I got caught though and in my head
I thought you were someone who wouldn't run
And I'm fighting low and i don't know
I'm placing punches on everyone
Have you had enough
Of what i've done done done
I've chased the obvious by wanting fun
There's a corner i'll curl up and go
Easier to stay to than throw this all away
We're not supposed to be natural born enemies
We're not supposed to be natural born enemies
If i bend how the rules behave
I'm out of sync with your steps and waves
Have you had enough
Of what i've done done done
I've chased the obvious by wanting fun
There's a corner i'll curl up and go
Easier to stay to than throw this all away
We're not supposed to be natural born enemies
We're not supposed to be natural born enemies
We're not supposed to be natural born enemies

I got the stones you've thrown that drove us to be friends
I keep painful souvenirs collect them in my head
Hit me up
Cut me up
Bust me up
I'll come out harder
I won't be over
Hit me up
Cut me up
Bust me up
I'll come out harder
I won't be over
Am I a warrior
Am I a warrior
Am I a warrior
Am I am I am I
Did I follow a sign
Did it say walk here and give up trying
You try to make me change
Will you leave me to be in the bed i've made
Hit me up
Cut me up
Bust me up
I'll come out harder
I won't be over
Hit me up
Cut me up
Bust me up
I'll come out harder
I won't be over
Am I a warrior
Am I a warrior
Am I a warrior
Am I am I am I
You can't keep holding me
You can't keep holding me
You can't keep holding me
Do what you want to me
You can't keep holding me
You can't keep holding me
You can't keep holding me
Do what you want to me
Hit me up
Cut me up
Bust me up
I'll come out harder
I won't be over
Hit me up
Cut me up
Bust me up
I'll come out harder
I won't be over
Am I a warrior
Am I a warrior
Am I a warrior

Under water
Still watching on
Everything moves in slow motion
No power to speak
But I'll hear it all
You make all my decisions
You got all my control
There was a message written on a t-shirt
As she cried in the waiting room
She kept telling him that it didn't hurt
But hope god would take him soon
And it said keep calm and carry on
Keep calm and carry on
It said keep calm and carry on
As god would keep him soon
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust we burn
Our time is borrowed
We all have to return
I was coming to help you
But I know you're caught between
Giving up or just living our sweetest dreams
But I never saw you
Looking as weak as this
Not like the way you lived
Not like my memories
Your face printed on a t-shirt
Got your picture in my room
Your body may be missing but
I'll be seeing you soon
So i'll keep calm and carry on
Keep calm and carry on
I'll keep calm and carry on
Someday I'll see you soon
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust we burn
Our time is borrowed
We all have to return
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust we burn
Our time is borrowed
We all have to return
