Intro:     2x


 Give me wings, give me peace
			      
 These are the things that I need

 I'm tormented, broken and shamed
	       
 Are you listening? (are you listening?)

 Give me shelter from the storm
			  
 I know it's a lot to ask for
						     
 Considering how recent I've piled the dirt on your name


 Are you listening? (are you listening?)
	     
 Are you listening?


 I have heard that winter's cold
			    
 Will give way to summer's warmth

 Oh no! Like salt in the snow
			  		           
 I'm melted and left all alone on the side of the road


 Is this where I am for your sake,
			  
 Stuck between sleep and awake?

 My mind is dreaming of things
	       
 Are you listening? (are you listening?)

 I took you for granted again
			     
 And threw you aside and pretended

 For one minute that I had control of my life
	   
 And direction it seemed to be in


 I was wrong again (I was wrong again)
	     
 Are you listening?


 I have heard that winter's cold
			    
 Will give way to summer's warmth

 Oh no! Like salt in the snow
			  		           
 I'm melted and left all alone on the side of the road

	          	       
 I will wait for you to come again
				 
 And I can't pretend like I'm confident
			                 
 And I can't pretend like it makes much sense
              
 When it doesn't


 I have heard that winter's cold
			    
 Will give way to summer's warmth

 Oh no! Like salt in the snow
			  		           
 I'm melted and left all alone on the side of the road


 On the side of the road
 On the side of the road
 On the side of the road


 I have heard that winter's cold
			    
 Will give way to summer's warmth

 Oh no! Like salt in the snow
			  		           
 I'm melted and left all alone on the side of the road
