Lyrics:
Verse 1.
I lay awake in the heat of the dead of night
Fighting the thought of a fear I don’t recognise
Working it’s way, coming in waves, I can’t hold it back
Outside the citys still, a siren spills from Anaheim
I play scenarios, try control, to run down the time
It ain’t enough, I can’t switch off
Got to get on track
Pre 1.
It’s easy to leave the open ends
If it’s weighing on me
Then you must be spent
I don’t forget a thing
From the first time we met
But we’re so far gone from
making sense
Chorus
I know our hearts in the right place
It’s jus t the wrong time
I’m trying to tell you
I know we both made our mistakes
I’ve owned up to mine
But you’ll never surrender
I was open to changing my ways
But you can’t even meet me half way
I know our hearts in the right place
It’s just the wrong time
Verse 2.
We had a lot riding on, but we fell off the line
Tried to talk, shut me off
But I’m still in the fight, tell me I’m wrong
Just say what you want, go on speak your mind
Pre 2.
It’s easy to run
When you don’t understand
The reasons I’ve got
For the way that I am
Must I always be first
To meet your demands
I just want to be heard
Come on give us a chance
Chorus
I know our hearts in the right place
It’s jus t the wrong time
I’m trying to tell you
I know we both made our mistakes
I’ve owned up to mine
But you’ll never surrender
I was open to changing my ways
But you can’t even meet me half way
I know our hearts in the right place
It’s just the wrong time
Middle 8
Don’t leave this open ended
No don’t keep me hanging on
But I’m clinging to the wreckage
Now, when the writings on the wall
I know our hearts in the right place
It’s just the wrong time
I’m trying to tell you
I know we both made our mistakes
I’ve owned up to mine
But you’ll never surrender
Chorus
I know our hearts in the right place
It’s just the wrong time
I’m trying to tell you
I know we both made our mistakes
I’ve owned up to mine
But you’ll never surrender
I was open to changing my ways
But you can’t even meet me half way
I know our hearts in the right place
It’s just the wrong time
I’m trying to tell you
