[Verse 1]
Broken by the back of it
It was hard enough without the loss
Hanging on a thread of it
It was hard enough without the cost
[Verse 2]
Dancing to your lover''''s beat
Beating on heavy feet
Working on a dream you made
Well, you made enough to ride the wave
[Chorus]
Elijah, you''''re too young to be lost
Elijah, don''''t fade out on the cross
Elijah, I don''''t know
What it is you need to... do
[Verse 3]
Wish you could have talked to me
Found another way to be
Living hard don''''t sound so good
It''''s hard to get out of the wood
[Chorus]
Elijah, you''''re too young to be lost
Elijah, don''''t fade out on the cross
Elijah, I don''''t know
What it is you need to... do
[Verse 4]
The radio was playing all day
And I heard you singing
Fingers strum the sound through delay
And it echoes through me
Wishbones hidden in the residue
Someday theyll find you
Just a little piece of good fortune
It wont forget you
[Chorus]
Elijah, you''''re too young to be lost
Elijah, don''''t fade out on the cross
Elijah, I don''''t know
What it is you need to... do
