Confront and I shudder to face it
Avoid and the guilt overrides
The energy that I spend
Dividing the time to lend
To focus my light on the foreground
No matter how seductive the back

I wish I could say I can
But somewhere between I land
So I need you again and again, you know

Cause I fall hard like the tears of an orphan
I sleep 'neath the weight of the world
But you're my daybreakers
Lead me to light

Steal me away if I'm drifting
Save me from trying to break my own heart
You know when I've reached my end
When there's no further I can bend
Show me where there's room to grow

Cause I fall hard like the tears of an orphan
I sleep 'neath the weight of the world
But you're my daybreakers
Lead me to light

The energy that I spend
Dividing the time to lend
I need you again and again don't you know?

Cause I fall hard like the tears of an orphan
I sleep 'neath the weight of the world
But you're my daybreakers
Lead me to light
