Shake

[Verse 1]
Don’t leave me is all I hear you say
Somehow that keeps me from all the plans that I made
Your promises sparkle I tell myself not to believe
The things that I want lose out to the one that I need

[Chorus]
Time does not waste itself
A dream cannot wake itself
The truth cannot disgrace itself
An unwritten prayer cannot save a lost soul
Arms cannot embrace themselves
A heart cannot break itself
And I cannot shake myself from you

[Verse 2]
We both know there’s only so much a person can take
Only so long you can reach only so long you can carry that weight
So some of us learn how to live with what we know we can’t fix
So we walk tall and we act proud and pretend that its better than it is

[Chorus]
Time does not waste itself
A dream cannot wake itself
The truth cannot disgrace itself
An unwritten prayer cannot save a lost soul
Arms cannot embrace themselves
A heart cannot break itself
And I cannot shake myself from you

[Chorus]
Time does not waste itself
A dream cannot wake itself
The truth cannot disgrace itself
An unwritten prayer cannot save a lost soul
Arms cannot embrace themselves
A heart cannot break itself
And I cannot shake myself from you

[Outro]
Don’t leave me is all I hear me say
As you per sway me to throw the rest of my life, away
