lyrics

We weathered our way
Through a couple of bad months,
and I was always looking for a fight
With Razor eyes
That cut through bone and marrow.
We were holding out for the summer.
The promise of few weeks good ahead.
You took my soul,
and never asked me for my consent.

You never found a life with me.
I never found the symmetry.
You lost a lot, brought to your knees.
Providence has abandoned me.
I hope to God you find your place.
I found it here on the page.
There's nothing left to offer here.

I want to thrive,
The hope that's in my bones gives me alive.
The debt I owed my soul is paid and I
will keep running til the light breaks
on the city-scape above me.
I'm pushing ever upwards til I'm free.

I'm not who I was meant to be.
The one that, the one lives inside of me
can't say all the words I need to say.
The things that I realize every day.
