[Verse 1]
I was young and unscathed
All the world was a stage
It was make-believe
Just a game to me
A world without scars
Reaching only as far as
My eyes could see
Featureless ground
'Til your river wound right through me
And carved out a canyon
For the first time, I came alive
[Chorus]
When I felt my own heart breaking
Suddenly, there was color inside
I felt my own heart breaking
Never felt more alive
Never more awakened
Never more awakened
[Verse 2]
All the colors of a dawn
With the innocence gone
There is only sky
I am open wide
Crying not out of fear
But to cherish the tears
Of a different kind
Now, I live for the days
When the world melts away
In a stranger’s eyes
That see right through mine
For that moment in time
[Chorus]
Oh, I feel my own heart breaking
Suddenly, you'd known me my whole life
Oh, I feel my own heart breaking
Never more alive
Never more awakened
[Bridge]
Before you walked away
You gave me one last embrace
I felt something pull
Letting you go
[Chorus]
Oh, I felt my own heart breaking
I felt my own heart breaking
Lord, and I'd do it again
Just to feel my own heart breaking
Never more alive
Never more awakened
[Outro]
Never again will I run from that feeling
Just to feel my own heart breaking
Never more alive, never more awakened
Never more, never more, never more
Never more alive
