You flicker like a mile high neon sign Hot and cold so no one knows your mind I was going to let you win But I won't break For an hour I held the moon on a string Now there's moments left til the world begins Everything is possible it's beautiful (chorus) When will you wake up see what's happening Right before your eyes no And if you must blow hot cold take a swing You will hit the target every time So I look before I leap and I see Wolves are at the door with my enemies I was going to let them in but then you say Watch the stars your feet are my enemy It's too far for them to bring you to me And everything is possible it's beautiful (chorus) I reach the water's edge I wish that I could hold everybody's breath Until no one has any left You take me to the edge You're the echo that I follow The footprints that I left behind Listen up I'll sing to you how I can Out of luck now time is all that we have Think about yourself and you'll kill all you love I know our makers love all the mess they make Out of sight behind these eyes you'll stay Where everything is possible it's beautiful (chorus)
