We cough up love and we think that it’s romantic
We hear, believe and we never question why
We chew on life without looking for an answer
We stare at the walls and give up before we try

But what if love keeps us safe
What if love keeps us brave
What if love keeps us safe
What if love keeps us safe away from harm

You call it quits, but I don’t think that it’s even
We’re speeding on, we run, run, run out of time
Stepping stones, there’s always someone to step on
Son stay close to me, there’s a lot between the lines

So let today glow
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly
Let's take out the bad as we go

Let today glow
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly
Don’t wanna let you go
Never let you go alone

We talk to God, we dial a prayer in the evening
We talk about all the good or bad we want
I guess people show that beauty’s often evil
Son stay close to me I'll show you my right from wrong

Let today glow
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly
Let's take out the bad as we go

So let today glow
We both might be dead by tomorrow
We're good and ugly
Don’t wanna let you go
Never let you go alone
