Fix The World

Darling, the way you held my hand
The things you could never understand
Wasn't the love story you planned
It was always worth it
You never made me apologize
For all of the tears you saw me cry
We know that somewhere down the line
The tables were turning

One day your eyes
Would hold the same pain as mine
So until then I'll try
To keep it together, for worse or for better

'Cause things will fall apart
The way that they always do
I wish that I could say it wasn't true
It's gonna break my heart
Seeing yours breaking too
I wish that I could fix the world for you

I wish I could strike a deal with God
Asking Him if He could just hold on
On any extra pain this life might cause
I would gladly take it
So you wouldn't have to take the brunt
Have to feel it all or just feel numb
You wouldn't have to lose someone you love
You wouldn't have to face it

One day your eyes
Would hold the same pain as mine
So until then I'll try
To keep it together, for worse or for better

These things will fall apart
The way that they always do
I wish that I could say it wasn't true
It's gonna break my heart
Seeing yours breaking too
I wish that I could fix the world for you

Imagine a whole entire universe
Where nothing ever has to hurt
And if it did, I'd take the worst of it
You wouldn't even know it
Somewhere so far outside of space and time
Where no one has to say goodbye
You're safe inside that paradise
You wouldn't even notice

That things will fall apart
The way that they always do
I wish that I could say it wasn't true
It's gonna break my heart
Seeing yours breaking too
I wish that I could fix the world for you
