Lyrics
WHAT I WOULD BE WITHOUT YOU?!
Words and Music by Peter Merz
At the end of ev'ry act of kindness
Gone terribly wrong
At the crash of each and ev'ry tunnel
Before we found the light
When we thought we were this close to freedom
In the smolderin' ruins
I could see the shadow of all I hate
Smiling back at me
PRE-CHORUS
You were the catalyst, the dark cloud following me ev'rywhere
You were the angry fist, shaking the air I breathe
CHORUS
What would I be without You?!
Locked in a vicious cycle of war and death
What would I be without You?!
I don't want to be defined by your ev'ry step
What would I be without You?!
Locked in a vicious cycle of war and death
What would I be without You?!
I don't want to be defined by your ev'ry step
Oh, what would I be without you?!
What would I be, oh what would I be without you?!
You know death came too soon
For some of my closest friends
With no time to grieve
There at the heart of ev'ry betrayal
Laughing in the background
Never content in each paradise
You became the snake
Spoiling everything that you touch
PRE-CHORUS
You were the catalyst, the dark cloud following me ev'rywhere
You were the angry fist, shaking the air I breathe
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Will I ever find the answer, to what would I be without you?
Will I ever cure this cancer, of what would I be without you?
REPEAT
Why don't we find out now?
Why dont we find out now?
INSTRUMENTAL
REPEAT CHORUS
