It Won't Always Be This Way


When I longed for isolation, this wasn't what I meant
Closing my front door to any others
I was burnt out from the noise when the World pulled up a seat
Retreating in the silence for some cover

Can we overcome this distance? Is it all a state of mind?
We're never all alone in our-defeat
Running to the window now to stare down any fear
Our love is not a secret we should keep

It won't always be this way every day, every day
You won't always have to cry by yourself to escape
Even though we can't control it, there are those who still relate
It won't always be this way, be this way...

I heard some wise men falter from the shadow of their doubts
Quick to claim that no one could've seen it
For those who tried to point out where such rivers overflowed
The ignorant responded by retreating

Can we overcome this crisis? Is it hopeless to resist?
When everyone believes that all is lost
Singing from our hearts to tear apart this empty sound
Our love is what will help us carry on

It won't always be this way every day, every day
You won't always have to cry by yourself to escape
Even though we can't control it, there are those who still relate
It won't always be this way, be this way...

Can we try to find some reason? Has it all gone up in flames?
We're all struggling with connections to maintain

It won't always be this way every day, every day
You won't always have to cry by yourself to escape
Even though we're bound by distance, in the end we'll find our place
It won't always be this way, be this way
It won't always be this way, be this way
