[Verse 1]
Take me to a different place
Where love is not illusion based
And fear is just a word they can define
Where I've heard hope and happiness
Is found in every beating chest
'Cause all those hearts are more or less inclined

[Pre-Chorus]
To give it all away without a fear of what's to break
The answer that we never seem to find
The hand we always take disintegrate without a trace
And we're the ones they've always left behind

[Chorus]
Help me understand the best is yet to come
Take me by the hand before I come undone
'Cause all this emptiness has left me feeling numb
But it's darkest right before the sun

[Verse 2]
Now I've let moments pass me by
But I refuse to leave my life
To fall between the cracks of my control
I was outspoken, 'til I broke open
All the chains that were imprisoning my soul
[Chorus]
Help me understand the best is yet to come
Take me by the hand before I come undone
'Cause all this emptiness has left me feeling numb
But it's darkest right before the sun

[Bridge]
And if you try to swim the other way
Then they'll never let you see another day

[Verse 3]
But I've been there before
I've been a soldier in this war
If you take it in your stride
You might just see the other side
Just breathe, breathe
Because everything you see
Is just a stone throw away

[Chorus]
Help me understand the best is yet to come
Take me by the hand before I come undone
'Cause all this emptiness has left me feeling numb
But it's darkest right before the sun
