i’m past the point of returning
for you i’m ruined and broken
there is no way of me turning
you've got my heart in the open

i see it shrink in the distance
and the glow of your glory
and never will miss this
bottom line of the story

i see the ocean come crashing
under lavender skies
i see clouds come flashing
now tell me, who am i

you’re the air that i’m breathing
while i’m lying there sleeping
you’re the cool of the evening
now you got me believing, singing…

trainwreck, i’m a trainwreck for
trainwreck, i’m a trainwreck
trainwreck, i’m a trainwreck for you

i’ll kiss it all with a farewell
goodbye, how you doing
and let it echo in stairwells
all these songs of my ruin

now watch me climb my own cross
without a loss for these words
as i motion a moment silence
and let it fly with birds

all else i got without you
is much adieu about nothing
i’d rather stand by you gone
than on the throne of another

you had me all from the start
i count it lost every part
i’ll sing out in the dark
you’ve got a grip on my heart

where could i turn from you
the darkest nights, you know you'd find a way
what else have i to do
what words are there left to say
you are the air that i breathe in
here is my heart i give
you are all of my reason
you are my reason to live
