The Only Way Out Is Through

[Intro] [Verse 1] I’m standing at the crossroads, With your tears still on my face. We’ve been fighting all these battles, But it feels like we’ve lost the race. Every word we’ve left unspoken, Every scar we’ve tried to hide, Is weighing down our shoulders, And tearing us apart inside. [Pre-Chorus] I know I'm barely holding on, And I’m slipping through your hands. But before I break completely, There’s something You should understand. [Chorus] The only way out is through, Even when it’s hard to breathe. We can’t escape the truth, But I won’t ask you to believe. We’ve got to face the fire, Even if it burns us too. The only way out is through, And I’ll be right here next to you. [Short Interlude] [Verse 2] We’ve been running from the pain, Trying to numb what we both feel. But the weight of all these memories, Reminds us that it’s all too real. I see the fear in your eyes, And I’m scared of what’s to come. But if we don’t walk this road together, We’ll end up forever numb. [Pre-Chorus] I know I'm barely holding on, And I’m slipping through your hands. But before I break completely, There’s something You should understand. [Chorus] The only way out is through, Even when it’s hard to breathe. We can’t escape the truth, But I won’t ask you to believe. We’ve got to face the fire, Even if it burns us too. The only way out is through, And I’ll be right here next to you. [Bridge] We’ve been holding on so tightly, But I’m starting to lose grip. Maybe we were always sinking, And we never learned to swim. Sometimes love is just a whisper, That fades before it’s heard. I wish I knew the answers, But I’m lost inside these words. [Chorus (Reprise)] Maybe The only way out is through, Even when it’s hard to breathe. We can’t escape the truth, But I won’t ask you to believe. We’ve got to face the fire, Even if it burns us too. The only way out is through, And I’ll be right here next to you. [Outro] [END]
