[Verse 1: Michael]
Don't talk, let me think it over
How we gonna fix this?
How we gonna undo all the pain?
Tell me, is it even worth it?
Looking for a straight line
Taking back the time we can't replace

[Pre-Chorus: Luke]
All the crossed wires, just making us tired
Is it too late to bring us back to life?

[Chorus: All]
When I close my eyes and try to sleep
I fall apart, I find it hard to breathe
You're the reason, the only reason
Even though my dizzy head is numb
I swear my heart is never giving up
You're the reason, the only reason

[Verse 2: Calum]
I feel you burning under my skin
I swear I see you shining
Brighter than the flame inside your eyes

[Pre-Chorus: Ashton]
Bitter words spoken, everything broken
It's never too late to bring us back to life

[Chorus: All]
When I close my eyes and try to sleep
I fall apart, I find it hard to breathe
You're the reason, the only reason
Even though my dizzy head is numb
I swear my heart is never giving up
You're the reason, the only reason

[Bridge: All & Michael]
Oh, oh, oh, you're the reason, the only reason
Oh, oh, oh, you're the reason, the only reason
Don't talk, let me think it over
How we gonna fix this?
How we gonna undo all the pain?

[Chorus: All]
When I close my eyes and try to sleep
I fall apart, I find it hard to breathe
You're the reason, the only reason
Even though my dizzy head is numb
I swear my heart is never giving up
You're the reason, the only reason
When I close my eyes and try to sleep
I fall apart, I find it hard to breathe
You're the reason, the only reason
Even though my dizzy head is numb
I swear my heart is never giving up
You're the reason, the only reason
