Would you ever feel this way again
When you're riding off the shore and then
The stream pulls you right in
The current starts to pick up
You're sinking as the song
Plays the requiem of fallacies
The notes will sing to drown you before long
All that's watered down
Is all that's gotten out
Giving up the fight
That's what it's all about
Find a way, to make it so
Living up to dying slow
How could you have ever known?
Leaving now, burning out, wick of hope
Have you ever seen yourself in frame?
In the moment, it's so typical
In motion, just the same
You're the mess above the camera light
Starving for direction
You can barely stand it
Hope to find some great connection, well
Just keep standing still
It's like you're paid to kill
A piece of every bone and body
Suffer yet again, until you
Find a way, to make it so
Living up to dying slow
How could you have ever known?
Leaving now, burning out, wick of hope
And that's the truth
All of this was complicated
Did you stand a chance to make it better than you ever could before
'Cause with you
You were not appreciated
I wished I could say sorry before the vultures eat me up and they want more
And they want more
And they want more
Did you ever think that you could ask
If the darkness lights the candle
You'll just burn into the wax
I'm not everything you needed
Maybe more than you could want
So we'll suffer in the silence
Tracing footsteps to move on, but I know
You've got lives to live
And nothing left to give
You're just a memory
I hope you can forgive
Find a way, to make it so
Living up to dying slow
I wished that you would never go
Leaving now, burning out, wick of hope
