Fault Line - Michelle Branch

I feel safe when we are standing in the wreckage

Are we hopeless pulled in opposite directions

Just when I was thinking that I couldn’t be lonely any longer

You start to pull me under when I try to keep my head above the water

Tremble and shake

We can’t rewrite all our mistakes

Lovers on a fault line

The things we say

When we’re both right will ricochet

Lovers on a fault line

And we both know you and I will never change

But we’re holding on until we feel it break

It’s too late to be the first to walk away

When we’re lovers on a fault line

You kissed me too hard

I thought you had the best intentions

You took it too far

Always desperate for attention

Just when I was thinking that I couldn’t be lonely any longer

You start to pull me under when I try to keep my head above the water

Tremble and shake

We can’t rewrite all our mistakes

Lovers on a fault line

The things we say

When we’re both right will ricochet

Lovers on a fault line

And we both know you and I will never change

But we’re holding on until we feel it break

It’s too late to be the first to walk away

When we’re lovers on a fault line

I’m scared that I am drowning in an open sea

You’re standing on the shore not even noticing

Just when I was thinking that I couldn’t be lonely any longer

Tremble and shake

We can’t rewrite all our mistakes

Lovers on a fault line

The things we say

When we’re both right will ricochet

Lovers on a fault line

And we both know

You and I will never change

But we’re holding on until we feel it break

It’s too late to be the first to walk away

When we’re lovers on a fault line

I feel safe when we are standing in the wreckage
