The Next Amendment

Everyone lights out, hey there's a fire now,
everyone's running near
Everyone line up, y'all gotta find out
Why is the fire here?

You don't see what I see
Always a hill in front of me
You don't believe what I believe
All of this at only seventeen

Is it perfect or is it a furnace?
How does it make you feel?
Tell me the truth now, i don't want to black out
'cause none of the heat is real

Open your hearts wide, ain't it about time
to let go of all you feel.
Forget all of their lies so we can find time
to start new with something real.

You don't see what I see
Always a hill in front of me
You don't believe what I believe
All of this at only seventeen

Breathe in deep, you're words they shatter me but they
fade like statues on the night streets.

You've had all the dreams that you could ask for,
but none can break your fall.
I'm here to keep you higher so you won't
break at all.

So you're a mess, but you say I can fix you.
Just grab my hand and we'll start brand new.

You've had all the dreams that you could ask for,
but none can break your fall.
I'm here to keep you higher so you won't
break at all.

I know you've been dying to get yourself out of here,
but know I'm gonna miss you being near.
So don't stop screaming your symphonies loud and clear
And keep on belting your lines so I can hear.

You've had all the dreams that you could ask for,
but none can break your fall.
I'm here to keep you higher so you won't
break at all.
