[Chorus]
I'd rather write a symphony
Than play this lonely melody
You know I just gotta bring it all out
So if you need my company
Open your eyes, look at me
While I'm singing my life away

[Verse 1]
I'd rather hear your interlude
Than live my life in solitude
You know it's so hard to play it alone
So if you need me close to you
Stay by my side
And help me through
While I'm singing my pain away

[Bridge]
Life can be achin'
We're so easily breakin'
My fingers are shaking
Oh, I gotta hang on to myself
Often it's trying
Hiding tears when I'm crying
When somethin is wrong
It's hard to be strong
The minute they're gone
I'll carry on
[Verse 2]
I'd rather share your symphaty
Than sail away in majesty
You know I'm dying to have you around

[Chorus]
I'd rather write a symphony
Than play this lonley melody
You know I just gotta bring it all out
So if you need my company
Open your eyes, and look at me
While I'm singing my life away
