until i return

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i still lose my way from time to time

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i promise i'll fight

but i can't promise that i'll be fine

you treated the damage that i let reside in my fragile mind

with stitches and bandage

you took the fault in my scars and you made it ours

i feel at home when you're lying next to me

but i fall apart when an ocean's in between

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i still lose my way from time to time

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i promise i'll fight

but i can't promise that i'll be fine

i can't promise that i'll be fine

i can't promise that i'll be fine

my life's been unraveling

as my legs give way to the crushing weight

of the shame i've been battling

you're my one true north when i veer off course

i feel at home when you're lying next to me

but i fall apart when an ocean's in between

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i still lose my way from time to time

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i promise i'll fight

but i can't promise that i'll be fine

i can't promise that i'll be fine

i can't promise that i'll be fine

keep me in your mind

i'm spinning out of control

more than i want you to know

keep me by your side

i'm spinning out of control

more than i want you to know

i survey the damage

haunting me again; will it ever end?

but stitches and bandage

they're a short-term cure until the pain returns

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i still lose my way from time to time

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i promise i'll fight

yeah i promise i'll fight

you can't keep me sane when i'm out of sight

i still lose my way from time to time

'cause you save my life more times than i'd like

i promise i'll fight

but i can't promise that i'll be fine
