can you feel it in the air?
the air you’re breathing?
tore your ticket for the long ride home

can you feel it in your prayer
when you’re kneeling?
or do you bow just to raise up a stone?

old habits, they die hard in you,
old loves, they leave shards in you
but it’s not too late

to give a little love
everybody breaks
everybody love
everybody bleeds
love, everybody takes
everybody love
everybody needs love

this is the cost of living
the price for breathing
the silver thread that weaves us into one

when the pain’s too much to bear
you want to stop believing
Hallelujah!
there’s nowhere else to run

life is hard, but it will get better
cause you and I, we were made to live forever
on this side of fate, you’ve got to…

you found the note on the table
you felt the blood rush into your face
another heart broken in the name of love

to give a little love
everybody breaks
everybody love
everybody bleeds
love, everybody takes
from everybody, love
everybody needs love

we learn from the breaking
the giving, the taking
the silver thread that weaves us into one
we stand through the fire
as the flames reach higher
after all these years
we find we’ve just begun to love
