All We Are

1. 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...
Time can tear you apart
But it won't break anything that you are, you are.

[Chorus:]
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.

2. 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
Lord knows I'll fail you time and again
But you and me we're alright.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Every single day that I can breathe, you change my philosophy
I'm never gonna let you pass me by.

[Chorus:]
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. [x2]

All we are, all we are, is everything that's right
All we need, all we need, a lover's alibi.

So don't say our goodbyes you know its better
We won't break, we won't die.
