All alone
I must stand
Even when I'm running
And it feels, like a dream
I need to awaken from

I believe
When it hurts
We must keep on trying
But I want, and I need
Like a river needs the rain
There's a bridge I need to burn before I leave
I just want to breathe again
Like a summer's day I need to feel the heat again

I only want to keep the stone from rolling
I only want to learn to feel the rain
Then maybe I could stop the leaves from falling
I only want to learn to freeze the flame
I know I'll be alive again
I want to be alive again

Here's the night, where are the stars 'cause I need some guiding
And it cuts like a knife as I watch you walk away

There's a bridge I need to burn before I leave
I just want to live again
Like a stormy rain I need to hear it beat again

I only want to keep the stone from rolling
I only want to learn to feel the rain
Then maybe I could stop the leaves from falling
I only want to learn to freeze the flame
I know I'll be alive again
I want to be alive again
I want to be alive again

'Cause I did my best
Baby who'd have guessed that I failed the test
'Cause when love ain't blessed and it's laid to rest it can leave a mess

I only want to keep the stone from rolling
I only want to learn to feel the rain
Then maybe I could stop the leaves from falling
I only want to learn to freeze the flame

I only want to keep the stone from rolling
I only want to learn to feel the rain
Then maybe I could stop the leaves from falling
I only want to learn to freeze the flame
