Lyrics

I?m still alive and this might sound stupid
But I?ve been meaning to call and maybe stay awhile
Let me catch my breath, I?m out of practice
I took three steps back to walk another mile

Tell myself I don?t get you
But can?t get you out of my head
Letting go and I don?t want you
But want you more than anything

Save me from this downward slide
As I paint the afternoon
Alone I know I won?t survive
But now I found you

Covet the fire and breath
Until the day becomes
A moment within my reach
An angel in the sun

Pick up the phone and see
I?m always on the run
But now I?ve come around
There?s safety in numbers

I want to love but the pain keeps its distance
Is nothing left or will courage overcome
I make the call will you forgive me
I?m one half the man, measured by the sun

Pull me from that Southern tide
And burn this fevered slight of hand
In death I?ll reach the finish line
But crawl before I stand

Covet the fire and breath
Until the day becomes
A moment within my reach
An angel in the sun

Pick up the phone and see
I?m always on the run
But now I?ve come around
There?s safety in numbers
