Rely On

Say my name once
Then forget it
Just pretend
You never said it
Make a lie
That I believe in
Just until
My heart starts beatin'
Think of me once
Then never again
Don't think of me
Now and then
'Cause when you've got me
On your mind
You drag me in again

'Cause you're my idol
You're my Zion
For me to pray to
As you fly on
And you're the hope
That keeps me going
Not a shoulder
I can cry on
An alter that
My love can lie on
To worship you
And then to die on
'Cause I'm not living
I'm just waiting
I need something
To rely on

Killing time
Is killing me
Waiting for love
Waiting for love
To set me free
I know
I'm lost in the fear
Just waiting for love
I won't see the light
Until it disappears

Just let me hope
And never learn
I'm past the point
Of no return
Be my truth
And be my fiction
Be my living
Contradiction
Take the pain you feel
And fight it
Love is better
Unrequited
Dreams are best
Before you wake
It all comes crashing down

So leave the silence
Safe and sound
And be what's lost
And never found
A memory
That's breaking down
While it's drifting
All around me

Life is perfectly astounding
I know that you
Will live without me
But I won't make it
Though I'll try on
I need something to rely on

Killing time
Is killing me
Waiting for love
Waiting for love
To set me free
I know
I'm lost in the fear
Just waiting for love
I won't see the light
Until it disappears

I need something
To rely on
Don't know who I'll be
If I'm wrong
Drift away from me
And I'm gone
I need something
To rely on
Said, I need something
To rely on
Don't know who I'll be
If I'm wrong
Drift away from me
And I'm gone
'Cause, oh
I need something
To rely on
To rely on

Killing time
Is killing me
Waiting for love
Waiting for love
To set me free
I know
I'm lost in the fear
Just waiting for love
I won't see the light
Until it disappears

Until it disappears
