Hard Branch To Snap

The lights were everywhere and I stood by the crash

They told me if I stayed that I would never forget

But you were in there; tell me, how could I want that?

So I stood right there; they couldn't force me back

because no one can hold me back but myself

If I can do this without you, I don't need their help

The time we waste; can't get it back

The faith we lose; can't get it back

Can't get it back

And every day I see him in the mirror

I want to crush his heart, I want to break his jaw

Cause neither of us deserve to be where we are

Cause neither of us deserve to be where we are

I never failed anyone as hard as I failed you

And let's be honest, I don't deserve any better

No I don't

The time we waste; can't get it back

The faith we lose; can't get it back

Can't get it back

When your faith looks a lot like fear

When your faith looks a lot like fear

When your fear looks a lot like guilt

So don't tell me my faith isn't there

Don't tell me

The time we waste; can't get it back

The faith we lose; can't get it back

Can't get it back

We're going to spend years doing this

In a place where we're too small

to read the words that tell us who we are

We blindfold our own eyes

we reach in the dark for one another

So desperate

we shake each other hard enough to kill

And we repeat and repeat and repeat the same question:

Will you see god?
