Anything Could Happen
Ellie goulding Lyrics

Stripped to the waist
We're vulnerable and open, revealing everything about ourselves

We fall into the river
We're diving headfirst into the unknown, taking a chance

Cover your eyes
Don't look, don't judge, don't preconceive

So you don't know the secret
I want to keep something hidden from you, my own personal mystery

I've been trying to hide
I've been battling with myself about whether or not to reveal this truth

We held our breath
We were bracing for impact, waiting for the other shoe to drop

To see our names are written
To confirm our existence, our place in the world

On the wreck of '86
On the ruins of the past, the things we've lost but still hold onto

That was the year
That was the moment when something important happened

I knew the panic was over
I realized that I had to let go of the fear and embrace life

Yes since we found out
Since we discovered the truth, things have changed

That anything could happen
The future is unknown, full of possibilities

After the war we said we'd fight together
We made a promise to each other to stick it out, no matter what

I guess we thought that's just what humans do
We assumed that unity and cooperation were just inherent in our nature

Letting darkness grow
Allowing negativity and despair to fester and take hold

As if we need it's palette and we need it's color
As if we believe that without darkness, there can be no beauty, no contrast

But now I've seen it through
But now I understand the truth, the importance of positivity and hope

And now I know the truth
And now I see things clearly, without the veil of negativity

Baby, I'll give you everything you need
I'm willing to provide whatever you require, support and strength included

But I don't think I need you
But I'm not sure if I'm ready to commit, to depend on someone else entirely

I know it's gonna be
I have faith in the future, in the good things to come

(But I don't think I need you)
(But I'm still not entirely sure about what I want)
