  • What if I told you life was built to break?
    What if I warned you, you can't outrun your fate?

    Would you believe with time comes grace?
    In perfect light, in perfect place
    Every dream was mine to lose
    And that's what it took to lead me to you

    So here's to the heartache
    Here's to the mistakes
    We'll drink to all the years, the tears
    That led to this place
    So here's to the heartache

    What if I told you that everything fades away?
    What if I hold you, but tell you there's just no escape?

    Would you believe with time comes grace?
    In perfect light, in perfect place
    Every dream was mine to lose
    And that's what it took to lead me to you

    So here's to the heartache
    Here's to the mistakes
    We'll drink to all the years, the tears
    That led to this place

    Here's to the dark days
    It's been a long wait
    We'll drink to all the years, the tears
    That led to this place

    I'll suffer, I'll bleed
    Lose everything
    I'll get my wings
    Fall from belief
    Fall to my knees
    And you will see

    With time comes grace Writer/s: DANIEL OLIVER, JONATHAN TAYLOR HAWKINS, MARK ANTHONY VOLLELUNGA, SCOTT C. STEVENS, WILL HOFFMAN
