[Chorus]
We stare at broken clocks, the hands don't turn anymore
The days turn into nights, empty hearts and empty places
The day you lost him, I slowly lost you too
For when he died, he took a part of you

[Verse]
No time for farewells, no chances for goodbyes
No explanations, no fucking reasons why
I watched it eat you up, pieces falling on the floor
We stare at broken clocks, the hands don't turn anymore

[Refrain]
If sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
I would climb my way to heaven and bring him back home again
Don't give up hope, my friend
This is not the end

[Chorus]
We stare at broken clocks, the hands don't turn anymore
The days turn into nights, empty hearts and empty places
The day you lost him, I slowly lost you too
For when he died, he took a part of you

[Bridge]
Death is only a chapter, so let's rip out the pages of yesterday
Death is only a horizon, and I'm ready for the sun
I'm ready for the sun to, I'm ready for the sun to set
This is Suicide Season

[Whispering]
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven to bring him back home again
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven and bring him home again
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven to bring him back home
This is Suicide Season
This is Suicide Season, my friend
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven to bring him home again
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven and bring him home again
If only sorrow

[Refrain]
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven and bring him home again
If sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven and bring him home again

[Outro]
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
We would climb our way to heaven and bring him home again
We would do anything to bring him back to you
We would do anything to end what you're going through
If only sorrow could build a staircase or tears could show the way
I would climb my way to heaven and bring him home again
I would do anything to bring him back to you
Because if you got him back, I would get back the friend that I once knew

Bring Me The Horizon are a British alternative rock band from Sheffield, Yorkshire—often stylised as simply “BMTH” or shortened to “Bring Me.” Formed in 2003, the group currently consists of lead vocalist Oliver “Oli” Sykes, lead guitarist Lee Malia, bassist Matt Kean, drummer Matt Nicholls, and keyboardist Jordan Fish.

The name of the band was taken from Captain Jack Sparrow’s line in the first Pirates of the Caribbean which he “Bring me that horizon.” Oli stated in an interview with Spin how the name connects with his vision of the

Right at the end of the film—it might even be the very last line—Johnny Depp says, “Bring me that horizon.” That was really inspiring. I was still living with my parents in Sheffield, England, when the movie came out [in 2003]. For me and the band, playing music was always wrapped up with the idea of touring and traveling and seeing the rest of England and the rest of the world. We never thought doing that was possible, but that’s what we wanted to do. So that quote sort of stands in for our feeling of wanting to see what the planet had to offer.
