when the pieces seem too shattered
to gather off the floor
and all that seems to matter
is that I can't feel you anymore
is that I don't feel you anymore

i need a reason to sing
i need reason to sing
i need to know that you're still holding
the whole world in your hands
i need a reason to sing

when I'm overcome by fear
and I hate everything I know
if the waiting lasts forever
I'm afraid I might let go

Will there be a victory?
Will you sing it over me now?
Your peace is the melody
Will you sing it over me now?

i need a reason to sing
i need reason to sing
i need to know that you're still holding
the whole world in your hands
that is a reason to sing
