Gotta Figure This Out

(album: Love, Save The Empty - 2008)

I separated my heart from my head
To feel out what's inside
I don't like what I see, so I say good night

Don't wake me 'cause I'm dreaming in color
Black and white is not my friend
Candy coated figures hold me in my bed

I've never been so deep inside a shadow
I've never been so insecure of what I know

I've gotta figure it out, I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for?
I've gotta figure it out before I lose you, love

Big city streets are calling me loud
The busy keeps me high
Well, this quiet town is wearing me down tonight

I know that I should stay here for a while
Listen to the sound of my shaky heart
Looking for gold in the ground

I've never been so deep inside a shadow
I've never been so insecure of what I know

I've gotta figure it out, I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for?
I've gotta figure it out before I lose you
Before I lose you, love

It's not okay to make you wait
To make you wonder why I
Can't hold you close or give you hope
That this will be all right, I wanna make it right

I've gotta figure this out, I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for?
I've gotta figure it out

I've gotta figure this out, I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for?
I've gotta figure it out before I lose you
Before I lose you, before I lose you, love
