lyrics
I'm knees to the ground tonight
Waiting for an answer
Calling out in darkness
Calling out incessantly
Love and reason, they never bind
To find us a solution
Do I have peace to see?
Do you have grace to hear you forsaking me?
O, are we still forever?
I'm trying to get through to you
But now I have come to see
That tonight, retreating like the ocean
We'll do this for the last time
We'll do this for the last time
And I try, I'm weakened and I'm broken
But we'll do this for the last time
The bridge is burnt between you and I
Everyone around can see
This is not working out
I'm embarrassed to the core
And my rage is nothing more than a plea to you
And the night is falling
And I can't admit it
That I'm lost at winning at this game of losing you
I'm losing you
O, are we still forever?
I'm trying to get through to you
And now I have come to see
That tonight, retreating like the ocean
We'll do this for the last time
We'll do this for the last time
And I try, I'm weakened and I'm broken
But we'll do this for the last time
The bridge is burnt between you and I
And I tried.
