The Catalyst (Live Version) Video (MV)

Some things come into your life for a reason
Some people cut like a knife for treason
I wasn't aware
You were hunting for a heathen

Some tales will end in a bow tied chapter
Some tales condemned by a terrible actor
I never guessed
You predicted a disaster

And it's you
You're the Catalyst
Waiting for the end of it
You're gonna watch this house burn down
With him and I in it
All for the fun of it
Because I let myself be found

Some love affairs die from drawn out drought
Some love affairs bloom from the smallest sprout
And he believed
He could go and plant his doubt

Some people well they just knew better
Some people they just had to weather
And he deceived
So I severed all his tethers

And it's you
You're the Catalyst
Waiting for the end of it
You're gonna watch this house burn down
With him and I in it
All for the fun of it
Because I let myself be found

But I never thought you'd steal me just in time
I never knew you'd feel me from the other side
And right when I lept from the cliff
You held your arms out wide
Redefined, intertwined, behind enemy lines

And I never thought I'd make it out alive
You never knew I could feel you from the other side
And right when I dove off the rope
You opened up my eyes
It was a sign, divine, stars align, lifeline

It was you
You're the Catalyst
Witnessed the end of it
As we watch his house burn down
With only him in it
Just for finality
Cause I fought hard to be found

You
The Catalyst
Witnessed the end of it
You
You're the Catalyst
As we watch his house burn down
I fought hard to be found
It's you
You're the Catalyst
