This Is Where It Starts

be unafraid, beat your heart
we're a circle now, this is where it starts
can you hear this beating drum
can you feel my beating heart
i got a fix when i was young
had a vision once of things to come
like a rush of blood, or passing train
your friends that came running, your friends that came
and all these things that i thought i'd outgrown
and hands hold you close
and hands hurried you home
i never dreamt i could feel so alone
embrace all you were, what once was wonderful
and i made plans for you
this is saving yourself, you're saving me too
it's the damnedest thing about you and me
and how this feels, and this chemistry
this is happening
we got tangled up in the afterbirth
of a shooting star as it crashed to earth
and you had failed yourself
but i had failed you first
and this trouble past, the last refrain
of a troubled task, the chords just rang
and digging through these last remains
your friends that came running, your friends that came
and all these things that i thought i'd outgrown
and hands hold you close
and hands hurried you home
i never dreamt i could feel so alone
embrace all you were, what once was wonderful
and i made plans for you
this is saving yourself, you're saving me too
it's the damnedest thing about you and me
and how this feels, and this chemistry
this is happening
(oh, oh, oh) x4
embrace all you were, what once was wonderful
and i made plans for you
this is saving yourself, you're saving me too
it's the damnedest thing about you and me
and how this feels, and this chemistry
this is happening
