Go put these embers to rest my friend.
I watched your burning heart grow cold with every breath to that vacant chest.
I can, I can relate to every fear that lurks and silently waits.
Failures long to be the centre of attention.
Every time that we're alone I could fold
To the truth that's pressing me to be told.
But I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
It flows like water into your broken self.
Floods your mind,
Overflows to everyone else.
I watched the tears roll down your cheeks.
The kind of force that makes me weak at the knees.
No we're not that hard to break.
We're all just surfaces of skin with fragile spaces hidden underneath.
Failures long to be the centre of attention.
Every time that we're alone I could fold
To the truth that's pressing me to be told.
But I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
It's so condescending when it makes common sense to constantly be down on my knees.
So I'll knuckle down just to figure this out.
Are we broken or missing a piece?
Failures long to be the centre of attention.
Every time that we're alone I could fold
To the truth that's pressing me to be told.
But I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
I always think before I speak and it's getting the best of me when you are involved.
