Tragedy + Time

[Verse 1] On the edges of the sharpest knives In the middle of the darkest nights Always knew that I would find you here In a puddle of the bravest tears I've seen enough to know It's lonely where you are [Pre-Chorus] Above the crowd Feet dangling from a rooftop (A rooftop) She waits from ledges For a voice to talk her down [Chorus] And nothing matters but the pain when you're alone (Still waiting) The never-ending nights when you're awake (Still waiting) When you're praying that tomorrow it's okay There will be a time to crack another smile (Still waiting) Maybe not today or for a while (Still waiting) But we're holding on to laugh again some day To laugh again some day [Verse 2] All that matters is the time we had Doesn't matter how it all went bad Never wonder what it might be like Shut the door, say goodbye When faced with tragedy (When faced with tragedy) We come alive or come undone [Pre-Chorus 2] So don't look back Let it shape you like an ocean Even the deepest scars In time will fade [Chorus] And nothing matters but the pain when you're alone (Still waiting) The never-ending nights when you're awake (Still waiting) When you're praying that tomorrow it's okay There will be a time to crack another smile (Still waiting) Maybe not today or for a while (Still waiting) But we're holding on to laugh again some day Yeah, we're holding on to laugh again some day [Bridge] And sometimes you have to go back To know just where you have been But we're old enough to know that What has been will be again And again, oh-uh-oh And the bravest of faces Are the ones where we fake it In the roles that we play [Chorus] Nothing matters when the pain is all but gone When you are finally awake Despite the overwhelming odds, tomorrow came And when they see you crack a smile And you decide to stay awhile You'll be ready then to laugh again [Outro] Nothing matters but the pain (We are tragedy, yeah, we are sympathy) Nothing matters but the pain You see what you want to see Nothing matters but the pain (We are misery and distant memories) Nothing matters but the pain We all learn to laugh again Yeah, we all learn to laugh again Oh, we will learn to laugh again
