lyrics

The promises of a well-intentioned love have weighed so heavily on me
brighter than the stars that you dreamed of and further than you would have believed
But ignorance has gone; its left enough to quake the earth beneath my feet: bringing down the pillars which I stood upon when I thought I was free

How many nights have I been awake waiting for something new?
How many lines have taken up space wasted all on you?
How many dreams have been kept at bay for fear of coming true?
How many lines have take up space wasted all on you?

Take your aim and shoot me where it counts
tell me off and open up my wounds
Please do your best to not waste words on this cold night what have you to prove?
With dreamer's hope I stand alert, willing to recover from the news
as dust collects and settles on the earth
while scars stand equal to the truth:

I believe in anything that you could say if it would make you feel the same.
