I built a house
for love to grow
I was so young that
it was hard to know
I'm as lost now as
I was back then
Always make a
mess of everything
It's about time
that I face myself
All I do is bleed
into someone else
Painting walls with
all my secret tears
Filling rooms with all
my hopes and fears
But oh my, oh my
I'll never learn
if I never leap
I'll always yearn
if I never speak
To be loved and love
at the highest count
Means to lose all the
things I can't
live without
Let it be known that
I will choose to lose
It's a sacrifice but
I can't live a lie
Let it be known, let it
be known that I tried
I'm so afraid
but I'm open wide
I'll be the one to
catch myself this time
Trying to learn
to lean in to it all
Ain't it funny how
the mighty fall
Looking back I
don't regret a thing
Yeah, I took some bad
turns that I am owning
I'll stand still and let
the storm pass by
Keep my heart safe
'til the time feels right
But oh my, oh my
I'll never learn
if I never leap
I'll always yearn
if I never speak
To be loved and love
at the highest count
Means to lose all the
things I can't
live without
Let it be known that
I will choose to lose
It's a sacrifice but
I can't live a lie
Let it be known
Let it be known that
I cried for you
Even started
lying to you
What a thing to do
All because I wanted
To be loved and love
at the highest count
Means to lose all the
things I can't
live without
Let it be known,
known, known
That I will choose,
I will lose
It's a sacrifice but
I can't live a lie
Let it be known
Let it be known that
I tried, that I tried
Let it be known
that I tried
