"Shaking Hands" lyrics

"Shaking Hands"

I will hold your hand until this hospital bed becomes a coffin for us
And I will jump right in and I will be buried with you while I'm still breathing

If all the world is just a stage
Then I would like to die beneath the beams

I can finally breathe
I don't feel this emptiness anymore
This heart that once was broken is
All that I have left to give
We cannot stop this ship from sinking
We cannot stop our shaking hands
Hold onto the only love you have
Cause you're nothing on your own

Love can make you weak
It can steal the bones from underneath your feet

If all the world is just a stage
Then you must be the blood that's in my veins

I can finally breathe
I don't feel this emptiness anymore
This heart that once was broken is
All that I have left to give
We cannot stop this ship from sinking
We cannot stop our shaking hands
Hold onto the only love you have
Cause you're nothing on your own

You're slipping away
And now I'm so afraid
That this is the end
Of all that we have been
You're slipping away
And now I feel the pain

If all the world is just a stage
Then I would like to die in your embrace

I can finally breathe
I don't feel this emptiness anymore
This heart that once was broken is
All that I have left to give
We cannot stop this ship from sinking
We cannot stop our shaking hands
Hold onto the only love you have
Cause you're nothing on your own
