We tried we fought we lost

We cried we saw it fall

We lost this game to forgiving needs

Carve the wound until it bleeds

You're keeping your distance

You're pushing me away

You've never let me say the words I want to say

Our time here has withered

Our circumstances changed

Cause you never let me say the words

I want to say

You're keeping your distance

You're pushing me away

You never let me say the words I want to say

Our time here has withered

Our circumstances changed

'Cause you never let me say the words I want

Too close to edge and we are down

We are shattered

Still we strive to rise again

Against the will that push us under

The surface of pride and hope

And through the roof that holds the rope

Too close to an end and we are down

We are shattered

Still we strive to rise again

Against the doubts that held us under

The surface where light brings hope

And through the dark that kept us closed

Resist the will that push us under

Resist the will that push us under
