"Comfort & Chaos" lyrics

I'll try to explain this
You'll understand if you're chasing greatness
The heartache, the mistakes
Are a part of what it takes to make it

I know you wanna play the part
No giving up when it gets hard
And so I'll be the one to show you
That pain defines you
The pain defines you

The river's flowing over me
I feel the current underneath
So why do I feel safe?
When there's no escaping
Your silence is deafening
When help is all I need
Why do I feel safe?
'Cause it's the only way

You want it, I've got it
Even though they tried to leave me heartless
Misguided, it's sad that
You found yourself alone inside the darkness

It's hard to leave the ones you love
But it's a part of growing up
And so I'll be the one to show you
That pain defines you
The pain defines you

The river's flowing over me
I feel the current underneath
So why do I feel safe?
When there's no escaping
Your silence is deafening
When help is all I need
Why do I feel safe?
'Cause it's the only way

I wanted to be someone who'd never let you down (let you down)
But it's better to try, and fail, than never try at all

The river's flowing over me
I feel the current underneath
So why do I feel safe?
When there's no escaping

The river's flowing over me
I feel the current underneath
So why do I feel safe?
When there's no escaping
Your silence is deafening
When help is all I need
Why do I feel safe?
'Cause it's the only way

'Cause it's the only way
It's the only way, oh
It's the only way
When there's no escaping
