Lyrics and translation
Original
We can't know the end until it's over.
Show your scars and let me pull you closer.
Watching your silhouette dance off the lake, I promise I won't let you break.
I know the dark shows up more than we'd like, carve it in stone so the story survives.
Try to stand tall, try to get you to smile, fight off what's sensible, say I'm invincible. It's all a lie.
'Cause darling, I'm shaking tonight, chasing a dream but I'm tired.
If we never make it, at least we can say we died trying.
Then at least the memories of you and me don't have to be perfect.
Your sandy feet, the way you breathe, the subtle things that make it all worth it.
Watching your silhouette dance off the lake, I promise I won't let you break.
I know the dark shows up more than we'd like, carve it in stone so the story survives.
Try to stand tall, try to get you to smile, fight off what's sensible, say I'm invincible. It's all a lie.
Darling, I'm shaking tonight, chasing a dream but I'm tired.
If we never make it, at least we can say we died trying.
Died trying, died trying, mm.
If we never make it, at least we can say we died trying.
Trust these words, my heart is true.
Love, let me be your refuge. Trust these words, my heart is true.
Love, let me be your refuge.
Trust these words, my heart is true. Love, let me be your refuge.
Trust these words, my heart is true.
Love, let me be your. . .
Darling, I'm shaking tonight, chasing a dream but I'm tired.
If we never make it, at least we can say we died trying.
