Pilot Light

I'm coming up for air

I can't breathe, I'm dying down here

I'm coming up for life

I got to make some wrong things right

I don't believe in fate

Just choice, just cause and effect

I heard the coast was clear

Is anyone still here?

If you want advice

I'm paying the price:

Love, it strikes once

It does not strike twice

"It wasn't in the cards"

That's what we say when it gets too hard

"It wasn't meant to be"

That's what we say so we don't feel guilty

And when it's gone, it's gone

Like the pilot light

That keeps you holding on

The truth was going to set us free

But all it did was take you away from me
