[Verse 1]

Oh to be a law unto yourself

A fixed state, so compelled

So cast a spotlight and shine it on you

Such a sight eclipses any other view

[Pre-Chorus]

You know that this is only wearing you down

Does it have to be this way?

[Chorus]

Struck by an avalanche

Dazed by the aftermath

Everything caved in at once while you were standing by my side

Everything caved in at once while you were standing by my side

[Verse 2]

Out of sight, but still on my mind

There's a middle ground I never thought I'd find

Room to breathe, space to move

Yet always something to prove

[Pre-Chorus]

You knew that this was only wearing you down

Did it have to be this way?

[Chorus]

Struck by an avalanche

Dazed by the aftermath

Everything caved in at once while you were standing by my side

Everything caved in at once while you were standing by my side

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Struck by an avalanche

Dazed by the aftermath

Everything caved in at once while you were standing by my side

Everything caved in at once while you were standing by my side
