One More Try

So much deeper than the oceans is the heart of man

So much higher than the mountains

Are the things that I don’t understand

Like why I’m crying over someone who will never give a damn

We have boarded up the basement for the storm has found its prey

I have bottled my emotions and saved them for a rainy day

Now I’ll drink the bitter poison of a love that’s been delayed

Since You’ve been gone, I can’t fight it I can’t fight it

I’ve tried for too long I can’t hide it I can’t hide it anymore

This has called for desperate measures

We have left our pride behind

We are aging with the hours of this superficial life

And I refuse to be a failure, I have to give it one more try

But I doubt that you are listening and I doubt that you are moved

I have doubted every step along this long and darkened journey

But I have never doubted you

Now the longing has awoken and I don’t know what to do
