Pull it out, turn it up, what's your favorite song? 
That's mine, I've been crying to it since I was young 
I know there's someone out there feeling just like I feel 
I know they're waiting up, I know they're waiting to heal 
And I've been holding my breath 
Are you holding your breath 
For too many years to count? 
Too many years to count 

And we waited for the sirens that never come 
And we only write by the moon 
Every word handwritten 
And to ease the loss of youth 
And how many years I've missed you 
Pages plead forgiveness 
Every word handwritten 

Let it out, let me in, take a hold of my hand 
There's nothing like another soul that's been cut up the same 
And did you want to drive without a word in between? 
I can understand, you need a minute to breathe 
And to sew up the seams after all this defeat 
All this defeat 

And we waited for the sirens that never come 
And we only write by the moon 
Every word handwritten 
And to ease the loss of youth 
And the many, many years I've missed you 
Pages plead forgiveness 
Every word handwritten 

Here in the dark, I cherish the moonlight 
I'm in love with the way you're in love with the night 
And it travels from heart to limb to pen 

And we waited for the sirens that never come 
And we only write by the moon 
Every word handwritten 
Every word handwritten 

And with this pen, I thee wed 
From my heart to your distress 

Every word handwritten
