"Without You" lyrics

There was hope when I was heartsick
There was a light within the gloom
This is a last resort, this is our life support
It's all I've got to see me through

But I've searched, and I find
A shot in the dark is worth two in the eye
We brought fire to a flood
The dam holds fast, but it's never enough

So how could you break my faith so young?
Surrender my fate, now the worst has come
My flesh and my blood, my moon and my sun
I'm not whole without you
Can you hear me calling out your name?
I see your face in every reflection
Your laughter, like a knife through the tension

There in the ether floats a fragment of me
A fate I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy
The guilt of the survivor resides
We suffer in silence, existing on the edge of a knife
Your echo never fades

I've been lost in the ether
Buried beneath this grief
You left me calling your name
Still floating weightless
Forever faithless
The dark grows near without you here

So how could you break my faith so young?
Surrender my fate, now the worst has come
My flesh and my blood, my moon and my sun
I'm not whole without you

I clasped my hands, read every line
I bent my knee a thousand times
The wiser I grew, the more that I knew
I was standing here alone

I was standing here alone
Can you hear me calling out your name?

Find me in the gutter like a cigarette
Who knew grief could cut me open like a bayonet?

Take me over the edge, I cannot bear this
I surrender to fate, the worst has come
