The Downtown Fiction - Living Proof


One more chance, it's all I’d ever ask for
I've been standing, waiting at your front door
I won't go, been waiting for hours (wait up)

Out of bed and looking in the mirror
Every day it gets a little clearer
If you go, I'm patiently waiting (wait up)

I'm climbing the walls
I'm searching for answers
The gears in my mind
Are turning like dancers
I'm trying to find
The words but I just can’t speak

I'm living proof, broken and defeated
I'm the shattered youth and no one could believe it
If I can’t have you, well darlin' I just can't go
Show me where the light is leading

Sit and stare, I wonder what you're thinking
Sweat falls down, my stomach starts the sinking
Where are you? I'm patiently waiting (wait up)
Just last night you said you didn't love me
Well that's alright, I know that you're above me
Memories past, they're flooding around me (wait up)

I'm wondering why, why did I do it?
And watching you cry, can barely get through it
I'm sorry I swear, I'm sorry for what I did

(Chorus)
I'm living proof, broken and defeated
I'm the shattered youth and no one could believe it
If I can't have you, well darlin' I just can't go on
And if I swear, swear to make it better
Would you stick around, I know that it will never
Be the way it was, but maybe we can make this right

Time stands still, if you stay, I will

I wanted to tell, tell you my secrets
I want you to know, know I believe this
I wanted to tell, tell you everything 2x

(Chorus)

So let it go, oohh
So get up, get up, get up
It's deep inside of you
Now wake up, wake up, wake up
It's deep inside of you
So get up, get up, get up
It's deep inside of
