All We are

I tried to paint you a picture,

the colors were all wrong

Black and white didn't fit you

And all along,

you were shaded with patience,

your strokes of everything

that I need just to make it

And I believe that

I could tear you apart but it won't break

anything that you are, you are...

We won't say our goodbyes

you know it's better that way

We won't break, we won't die

It's just a moment of change

All we are, all we are,

is everything that's right.

All we need, all we need,

a lover's alibi.

I walked a minute in your shoes,

they never would've fit

I figured there's nothing to lose

I need to get

some perspective on these words before I write them down

You're an island and my ship has run aground

I could tear your apart, but it won't break

anything that we are, we are

We won't say our goodbyes

you know its better that way

We won't break, we won't die

It's just a moment of change

All we are, all we are,

is everything that's right

All we need all we need,

a lover's alibi.

Every single day that I can breathe,

you changed my philosophy

I'm never gonna let you pass me by.

So don't say your goodbyes you know its better that way

We won't break, we won't die

It's just a moment of change...

All we are, all we are, is everything that's right

All we need, all we need, a lover's alibi.
