Landmines (Before the Dawn)
by Ryan Stevenson

Album: Valley Lows, Mountain Highs

We've been lost in a moment, future's outta focus
Stuck on a road that's going in circles
Exhausted and hopeless
Two sets of baggage, keeping two hearts captive
We've buried our skeletons, scared and embarrassed of what we'll find if we dig

Loving through hard times
Is like walking through land mines
And now we gotta decide
If we're willing to pay the price

If we're gonna fight, can it be to hold on to each other?
If we're gonna lose, can it be that we choose to surrender?
Praying for a miracle
In the face of the impossible
Maybe we defy the odds
Knowing hope is never lost
It's always dark before the dawn

The dawn
The dawn
The dawn

In the beginning there were fireworks
Then resentment grew and turned into explosive words
The shrapnel of bitterness left
An infection and we keep pretending while it's getting worse

Defending our position in no condition to listen to the truth
So hard to face, we're so afraid
Of all the secrets we're keeping and taking to the grave
Even though we're going there either way

If we're gonna fight, can it be to hold on to each other?
If we're gonna lose, can it be that we choose to surrender?
Praying for a miracle
In the face of the impossible
Maybe we defy the odds
Knowing hope is never lost
It's always dark before the dawn

The dawn
The dawn
The dawn

Loving through hard times
Is like walking through land mines
And now we gotta decide
If we're willing to pay the price

If we're gonna fight, can it be to hold on to each other?
If we're gonna lose, can it be that we choose to surrender?
Praying for a miracle
In the face of the impossible
Maybe we defy the odds
Knowing hope is never lost
It's always dark before the dawn

The dawn
The dawn
The dawn

The dawn
Before the dawn
