lyrics

it’s a shame we never talk

but truth be told, i never listened anyway

promised everything i had to give

but this time i’ve given enough away

chorus:

i rise above them all

just to seek the truth behind the light

and then i crawl right through the remaining days of my afterlife

but when i fall, i’ll fall hard enough to break us both apart

…you broke us both apart

faded pictures in my mind

reminders of our decision

promised never to forget

but i haven’t thought about you in a while

stories i gave you are haunting me now

who was i to pretend

simply to be a man

doing the best he can

chorus:

i rise above them all

just to seek the truth behind the light

and then i crawl right through the remaining days of my afterlife

but when i fall, i’ll fall hard enough to break us both apart

…you broke us both apart

the truth is i ain’t never had the nerve

to go out and get things i think that i deserve

this time it’ll be the beautiful curves of your body

this time it’ll be the beautiful curves of your body

right next to mine

and if we find middle ground

we’ll stand very, very still
