ANGELA

When all the dust is finally settled down Will you still be standing there in your safe clean place on solid ground? And I can't tell you where you're supposed to be But I know your words are safe when they're talking to me Cut the anchor, feel the tide She knows where to go, the water doesn't care what you're trying to hide All that walking and you've still not made it home Catch your breath and forget, you'll never make it there if you're turning over every stone And I don't care who makes the rules, as long as I'm with you And I know you, and I know you know me too Oh we get carried away, easy to say You fall away before you call me in Let's stay awake so it won't have to end As long as we can pretend, I will defend You Is it better not to lie When the clouds already spell it out across a Midwest sky Softer songs and simple chords If you like how it sounds, who cares if it's already been done before? If you have to scream to make it go away That's okay, sometimes we have to raise our voice to make the pain evaporate Give me one more line I don't know if I know where you stand, but I think that we'll figure it out in time And I don't care who makes the rules, as long as I'm with you And I know you, and I know you know me too Oh we get carried away, easy to say You fall away before you call me in Let's stay awake so it won't have to end As long as we can pretend, I will defend You And what more could anyone want, than to find security In someone, in someplace, to call their own? To find comfort in the sound of their collective footsteps And serenity Knowing not the path, nor the destination But the party The commitment to togetherness And common goals And what it takes to build a home To find familiarity and meaning in the places we've always seen, but never known to look I don't wanna look any further, because They say the grass can always be greener But I never wanted a lawn, rather a garden And we will walk it together And I don't care who makes the rules, as long as I'm with you And I know you, and I know you know me too Oh we get carried away, easy to say You fall away before you call me in Let's stay awake so it won't have to end As long as we can pretend, I will defend You
