As Long As It Takes

I was watching when you lost direction

And I saw you when the headlights died

You were standing at the edge of a train wreck

Twisted up inside

I tried to find you in your pitch black bedroom

I tried to find you in the place you hide

But your body was an empty suitcase

Hollow sunken eyes

If you let me catch a ride on your road to recovery

You can fall apart on me

Because I'll be here as long as it takes

A remedy to steady your midnight shakes

I'll stay here as long as it takes

As long as it takes to get it right

Strange how no matter what the distance

You can never escape yourself

Distorted by your own reflection

But only I can tell.

I know I said I didn't watch your plane leave

Honestly, I should admit I lied

I was standing at the edge of the runway wishing I could fly

If you let me catch a ride on your road to recovery

You can fall apart on me

Because, I'll be here as long as it takes

A remedy to steady your midnight shakes

I'll stay here as long as it takes

As long as it takes to get it right.

It's beautiful to break

Let your false flag drift away

Show me your face

You can fall apart on me

Because I'll be here as long as it takes

A remedy to steady your midnight shakes

I'll stay here as long as it takes...

I'll be here as long as it takes

A memory that steadies your midnight shakes.

I'll stay here as long as it takes,

As long as it takes to get it right.
