[Verse] I'm shooting for the stars to hit the moon, Mapping out a course for both my shoes, I've already practiced acting like there's nothing to it, Trying to hold the world together in my mind, Trying to make it snow in mid-July, Trying to prove my heart is worth the blood that's pumping through it. [Hook] 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 soilder. [Chorus] And it takes you by suprise, Like a rebel tide, Like lighting from the skies has been searching for ya, And it splits you like a knife, The moment that it tries, Make you [?] alive the dead that's looking for ya, [Verse] Trying to keep my hopes above my doubts, Trying to keep my thoughts above my mouth, I feel like a satellite just dying and leave my orbit,
I take another shot at faking love, Miss it by a mile left and some, My insides are burning like I ever think you're boring. [Hook] Praying like a child on Christmas Eve, Father won't you raise the sun early, I ask an awful lot of both my needs just waiting for ya, [Chorus] And it takes you by suprise, Like a rebel tide, Like lighting from the skies has been searching for ya, And it splits you like a knife, The moment that it tries, Make you alive the dead that's looking for ya, [Instrumental] And it takes you by suprise, Like a rebel tide, Like lightning from the skies has been searching for ya... And it splits you like a knife, The moment that it tries, Make you feel alive Oooooooohhhhhhh
