The second single off our upcoming album, "Morning Comes".

lyrics

If I let you in, you could be the one to put an end to me
My Enemy for all I know
So don't go 'round expecting my guards down
I’m protecting the things that you loathe
I doubt you'll give me the best of you
I bet you'll bend over backwards for the hell that you'll put me through
I’ve been touched before by pain
The person then being me and I are far from the same

The things you’ve done, they don’t make sense to me (woah-oh oh oh)
The words you’ve said couldn’t mean less

Don’t try to bring me down because it makes you happy
I know now, and I won’t allow you to do this again
Don’t try to tear my heart out to ease the pain you feel inside
Some things you just can’t run from, some things you just can’t hide

Whats the point of bringing me down
What use are wings when my feet are here on the ground
No time to shut me out
Cause I got a lot to say, don't you turn away
I got one life to live, no time for bullshit
All that I had to give, I’ve already spared
Now you’re just deadweight to carry, not my first choice to marry
Is this really necessary in the end?

The things you’ve done, they don’t make sense to me (woah-oh oh oh)
The words you’ve said couldn’t mean less (couldn't mean less if you cared for me all along)

Don’t try to bring me down because it makes you happy
I know now, and I won’t allow you to do this again
Don’t try to tear my heart out to ease the pain you feel inside
Some things you just can’t run from, some things you just can’t hide

The demons you hide, they’re not that far behind
You better run, better run on home now
The demons you hide, they’re not that far behind
You better run, better run on home now
You better run, better run, better run, better run, better run, better run on home now

Don’t try to bring me down because it makes you happy
I know now, and I won’t allow you to do this again
Don’t try to tear my heart out to ease the pain you feel inside
Some things you just can’t run from, some things you just can’t hide

(solo)

I hope you find what makes you happy
The hate you bind to your heart, you must let it go
With love I’ll astound you, a warmth to surround you
There are no reasons to pretend
I’ll be here for you ‘till the end
