Fireworks At Waterloo
I track my days
In an app
With pretty little colours
But they're turning out gray
I rack my brain
Looking for the answer
To why I'm not okay
Sometimes I get the feeling
That this could be the end
But you hold my hand
As I'm breaking down in a quiet room
While I hold back tears
A silent ode of I love you
You can set me off
Like fireworks at Waterloo
And it's okay
Oh it's okay
'Cause you're always there
When I need you to be
And I take that for granted
Far too quickly
And I hope, I'm there
When you need me to be
'Cause it's okay
Oh, it's okay
I'd pack a case
Whisk us far away
Somewhere, where the void can't reach us
But lately I've been losing sleep
Been kept awake by all my dreams
But they're not going nowhere at all
Sometimes I get the feeling
That this could be the end
But you hold my hand
As I'm breaking down in a quiet room
While I hold back tears
A silent ode of I love you
You can set me off
Like fireworks at Waterloo
And it's okay
Oh it's okay
'Cause you're always there
When I need you to be
And I take that for granted
Far too quickly
And I hope, I'm there
When you need me to be
'Cause it's okay
Oh, it's okay
We sat on my bedroom floor
Reinventing our childhoods
I'd give anything and everything
To be back there
To be back there
But you hold my hand
As I'm breaking down in a quiet room
While I hold back tears
A silent ode of I love you
You can set me off
Like fireworks at Waterloo
And it's okay
Oh it's okay
'Cause you're always there
When I need you to be
And I take that for granted
Far too quickly
And I hope, I'm there
When you need me to be
'Cause it's okay
Oh, it's okay
You hold my hand
As I'm breaking down in a quiet room
While I hold back tears
A silent ode of I love you
You can set me off
Like fireworks at Waterloo
And it's okay
Oh it's okay
In an app
With pretty little colours
But they're turning out gray
I rack my brain
Looking for the answer
To why I'm not okay
Sometimes I get the feeling
That this could be the end
But you hold my hand
As I'm breaking down in a quiet room
While I hold back tears
A silent ode of I love you
You can set me off
Like fireworks at Waterloo
And it's okay
Oh it's okay
'Cause you're always there
When I need you to be
And I take that for granted
Far too quickly
And I hope, I'm there
When you need me to be
'Cause it's okay
Oh, it's okay
I'd pack a case
Whisk us far away
Somewhere, where the void can't reach us
But lately I've been losing sleep
Been kept awake by all my dreams
But they're not going nowhere at all
Sometimes I get the feeling

But you hold my hand
As I'm breaking down in a quiet room
While I hold back tears
A silent ode of I love you
You can set me off
Like fireworks at Waterloo
And it's okay
Oh it's okay
'Cause you're always there
When I need you to be
And I take that for granted
Far too quickly
And I hope, I'm there

'Cause it's okay
Oh, it's okay

And I take that for granted
Far too quickly
And I hope, I'm there
When you need me to be
'Cause it's okay
Oh, it's okay
You hold my hand
As I'm breaking down in a quiet room
While I hold back tears
A silent ode of I love you
You can set me off
Like fireworks at Waterloo
And it's okay
Oh it's okay
