The minute you know there's a flicker
The whole of the world loses shape
When all of your hopes are found in a person
Then all of your fears scatter away

And you both say
"What the hell was my life before we met?"
And you both say
"We'll be here do or die with no regrets"
And you both say
"I'll be your lover forever
Thick or thin through it together
We'll be kicking the doors down"
Kicking the doors down

Then somehow you grow into an island
You've patched all the holes still you sink
The water will flow 'til you're drowning
There's no one to hold pushed to the brink

And you both say
"Hell, I was doing fine before we met"
And you both say
"Why'd I waste all this time, you're so pathetic"
And you both say
"I'm gonna give up, surrender"
Blame this shit on the bad weather
We'll be kicking the doors down
Kicking the doors down

But the second you fold there's an answer
A glimmer of gold in the grey
The space in your bed's getting bigger
There's a stack of regret where we let it all set to a fade

And you both say
"Why are we on a race to separate lives?"
And you both say
"What if we made a pact to make it right?"
And you both say
"What if we loosen the tightrope, back to before with the high hopes
We'll be kicking the doors down"
Kicking the doors down
We'll be kicking the doors down
Kicking the doors down (ooh, la-da-dum)
Kicking the doors down

Da-da-da, ba-dum
Kicking the doors down
Ba-da-da-da, ba-da-da
Kicking the doors down
We'll be kicking the doors down
