To the Hilt

Always seems a long time ago

Oh we didn't know...

Before we had seen anything

We believed in everything

All those times you warmed my hand

Maybe things weren't easy as they seem

We begged each other to the hilt

We begged each other to the hilt

Now I live in this house we built

Hated you for leavin' me

You were my muse for so long

Now I'm drained creatively

I miss you on my team

Hated you for walkin' out

I blew up and you were gone

So they say it's the industry

But I miss you on my team

People say we're better off, you couldn't keep up

I still keep one broken piece

The one that fits in that chip on your shoulder

When we made our master plans

Is this where you thought we would be standing?

We begged each other to the hilt

We begged each other to the hilt

Now I live in the house we built

Hated you for leavin' me

You were my muse for so long

Now I'm drained creatively

I miss you on my team

Hated you for walkin' out

I blew up and you were gone

They say it's just the industry

But I miss you on my team

We started this together, now you're gone

And we said forever we were naive

You saw me as a superstar

And I was a case you helped them see

Hated you for leavin' me

You were my muse for so long

Now I'm drained creatively

But I miss you on my team
