I'm shooting for the stars to hit the moon
Dsus
I've already practiced acting like there's nothing to it.
Try to hold the world together in my mind
Dsus
Try to prove my heart is worth the blood that's pumping through it
Pre-Chorus
Praying like a child on Christmas Eve
Father won't you raise the sun early?
If you do this one last thing for me I'll be your soldier
And it takes you by surprise
Like a rebel tide
Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you
And it splits you like a knife
The moment that it strikes
When you realize that death was looking for you.
I try to keep my hopes above my doubts
Dsus
I feel like a satellite just dying to leave my orbit
I take another shot at faking love
Dsus
My insides are thirsty for whatever drink you're pouring
Pre-Chorus
Praying like a child on Christmas Eve
Father won't you raise the sun early?
I ask an awful lot of both my knees just waiting for you
And it takes you by surprise
Like a rebel tide
Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you
And it splits you like a knife
The moment that it strikes
When you realize that death was looking for you.
He was looking for you
Oh
Oh
And it takes you by surprise
Like a rebel tide
Like lightning from the sky has been searching for you
And it splits you like a knife
The moment that it strikes
When you realize that death was looking for you.
He was looking for you
Oh
Oh When you find out death was looking for you
