|
I tried I failed to believe |
|
In the reward |
|
I would receive |
|
If only heaven's distant sun |
|
Would burn away all the things |
|
I'd done I tried to no avail |
|
To keep my eyes from growing pale |
|
But my vision came too late |
|
And my belief started to abate |
|
Like a tide recedes from rocky shores |
|
I drew back no matter how much you implored |
|
I fail to see the beauty here |
|
Everything |
|
I loved has disappeared |
|
Worlds collide without a sound |
|
And flames arise from frozen ground |
|
But nothing can bring back my faith |
|
You tried your best, but |
|
I'm afraid that it's too late |
|
I looked into your eyes |
|
For some sign of surprise |
|
That I would question all of this |
|
That I would stand upon that precipice |
|
The look would never come |
|
As you just stood there growing numb |
|
And your eyes dropped to the ground |
|
In search of something |
|
I might find profound |
|
Like a tide recedes from rocky shores |
|
I drew back no matter how much you implored |
|
I fail to see the beauty here |
|
Everything |
|
I loved has disappeared |
|
Worlds collide without a sound |
|
And flames arise from frozen ground |
|
But nothing can bring back my faith |
|
You tried your best, but |
|
I'm afraid that it's too late |
|
I tried I failed to forgive |
|
For the life you made me live |
|
A confusing ride at best |
|
And at its worst it seemed so meaningless |
|
If there's a lesson to be learned |
|
Some sort of wisdom to be earned |
|
It held too great a price |
|
It required too great a sacrifice |
|
Like a tide recedes from rocky shores |
|
I drew back no matter how much you implored |
|
I fail to see the beauty here |
|
Everything |
|
I loved has disappeared |
|
Worlds collide without a sound |
|
And flames arise from frozen ground |
|
But nothing can bring back my faith |
|
You tried your best, but |
|
I'm afraid that it's too late |
|
Worlds collide without a sound |
|
And flames arise from frozen ground |
|
But nothing can bring back my faith |
|
You tried your best, but |
|
I'm afraid that it's too late |
