Have You Always Known

Have you always known
That there's a hole in your heart
The valves are drifting apart
And if I were made of steel
I'd try to set off a spark
To find your face in the dark

But we are just beginning
We're still forming, let's not leave just yet
We'll live here in the valleys
Of our memories so we don't forget

Am I where you hide
When life is too much at once
Am I your dream, your silence
And if you were going rogue
I'd make the best of my odds
And put it all toward the cause

But we are just beginning
We're still forming, let's not leave just yet
We'll live here in the valleys
Of our memories so we don't forget
What it felt like

I wanted to give you a reason to stay
I wanted to tell you I found a new way
I saw you, I claimed you, is that how it works
I'm not trying to blame you

Have you always known (that there's a hole in your heart)
That there's a hole in your heart (the valves are drifting apart)

I saw you, I claimed you, is that how it works
I can't seem to hold on when worst comes to worst
