[Verse 1: William Alex Young] Blood rushes to my head, I feel it rising now How should I live my life? No doubt you'll tell me now The pattern never ends, the source is where I stand Can't reap the seeds unsown, we're slaves to running sands [Pre-Chorus: Cherry Duesbury] I lend my hand, you're falling You turn your head, I'm on my knees Can't face the fear of starting over [Chorus: Cherry Duesbury & William Alex Young] Are you doing this for the right reasons? Do you even know what's right or wrong? I'm reaching out into the smoke, yeah It shouldn't be this hard to see at all [Verse 2: William Alex Young] No more questioning my worth For this revelation I will burn I'd give anything Just to come back down to earth [Pre-Chorus: Cherry Duesbury] I lend my hand, you're falling You turn your head, I'm on my knees Can't face the fear of starting over [Chorus: Cherry Duesbury & William Alex Young] Are you doing this for the right reasons? Do you even know what's right or wrong? I'm reaching out into the smoke It shouldn't be this hard So tell me who you are now My vision of you is just a blur I'm reaching out into the smoke, yeah It shouldn't be this, shouldn't be this hard to see at all [Bridge: William Alex Young & Cherry Duesbury] The thoughts that keep you awake Unsure if you'll bend or break And all the things that you say, I burn for it The thoughts that keep you awake Unsure if you'll bend or break And all the things that you say, I burn I burn for it, I burn for it The thoughts that keep you awake Unsure if you'll bend or break And all the things that you say, I burn again Again Again Again Again The thoughts that keep you awake Unsure if you'll bend or break And all the things that you say, I burn again [Chorus: Cherry Duesbury] Are you doing this for the right reasons? Do you even know what's right or wrong? I'm reaching out into the smoke It shouldn't be this hard (Shouldn't be this hard) So tell me who you are now (Tell me who you are now) My vision of you is just a blur I'm reaching out into the smoke, yeah It shouldn't be this, shouldn't be this hard
