Avalanche Lyrics by Flyleaf

Between the Stars (International Special Edition)

2014

[Verse 1]
Hanging from my fingertips, you're a phantom limb
Start to slide, branches die, I'm buried under it
Thought I was climbing by your side, you left me behind
I saw our future up ahead, now it's caving in

[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the ground, it's giving out

[Chorus]
It came rolling down on us
Didn't think it'd weigh this much
And it's hard to dance, dance through the avalanche
It's our curse, hearts frozen in time
Crashing down a mountain side
And it's hard to dance, dance through the avalanche

[Verse 2]
We were reckless from the start, like we could handle it
Before we even fell apart, you abandoned it
And now I long to feel the sun washing over me
And melt away the damage done from the memory

[Pre-Chorus]
I won't stay down, I'm digging out

[Chorus]
It came rolling down on us
Didn't think it'd weigh this much
And it's hard to dance, dance through the avalanche
It's our curse, hearts frozen in time
Crashing down a mountain side
And it's hard to dance, dance through the avalanche

[Bridge]
Let go, you won't know until you let go
Let go, you won't know until you let go
Let go, you won't know until you let go
Let go, you won't know
You don't know, you don't know until you let go

[Interlude]
Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
It came rolling down on us
Didn't think it'd weigh this much
And it's hard to dance, dance through the avalanche
It's our curse, hearts frozen in time
Crashing down a mountain side
And it's hard to dance, dance through the avalanche

[Post-Chorus]
Dance through the avalanche
Dance through the avalanche
Yeah, it's hard to dance, dance through the avalanche

[Outro]
Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
