If I held my ground would you ask me to change This drought bleeds on now we're dancing for rain These worlds collide but the distance remains We point the finger, never accept the blame and I know, I know We drink the air but its so not the same Were

With every heartbeat We were dancing to the sound Of a broken heart There in the madness Us against the world And every heartbeat felt like This is what we deserve Do you remember When you and I were young?

For united we stand. Divided we fall And if our backs should ever be against the wall We'll be together, Together, you and I There's no where in the world that I would rather be Then with you my love And there's nothing in the world that I would rather

Babe it's you and I Looking at all or nothing It's just us against the world With you I know that I am good for something We've got our backs against the ocean You've got all that I need So let's go give it a try So lets go give it a try

For closing me down Christmas flared amongst us And we called it evergreen Built a world without your love Take me back to the catacombs I am tempted by her love Bluest eyes against my own skin I've never been so caught up Looking around I see memories

Like a man against the world Alone I take my stand Have you ever walked alone at night No one takes your side A boat against the tide When your faith is shaken you start to break And your heart can't find the words Tossed upon the sand I give you a man

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Papers I'm ready to sign them papers, papers, papers I done took all I can take but you leave me no options girl For you I gave my heart and turned my back against the world I done damn near lost my mama, I done been through so much drama

I will be right here We ride the highs and lows When the smoke clears You'll never be alone Even when your world explodes 'Cause after all the smoke clears "You and I, against the world" That's what you told me An emotional roller coaster, yeah

I know a girl from an island She stands apart from the crowd She loves the sea and her people She makes her whole family proud Sometimes the world seems against you The journey may leave a scar But scars can heal and reveal just Where you are The people

It's alright These whereabouts unknown Please know you can come home I long for the moment Our silence is broken It's alright now To the ends of this lost world You have marched and you have sworn To a tainted crown of thorns
