lyrics

Hey, it’s been a while. I guess you’ve been watching the best and the worst of me. I’ll bet you cracked a smile when I tried to hold this back: it’s a freight train, I’m on the tracks. I’ve lost hope, abandoned trust. My morals are, at best, dubious. This ordeal has stripped my pride away: another lesson learnt the hard way. I’m in the dark and all you had to say was “You’re on your own again. The light’s out at the end of the tunnel, you better start getting used to it.” Did I fail your test this time? Did you really care either way? Are you keeping track of every mistake I ever made? This confession came too late in the day. I’ll hang my head and say “It wasn’t whole hearted anyway.” Is it too late to turn back and go on waiting for the tides to change? If you can, make me chaste; just give me one more day. If the sunlight fades, then I’ll be left in the dark, and all I’ll have to say is “Everyone makes mistakes.” The light’s out at the end of the tunnel; looks like
I haven’t got a prayer tonight. All the signs say that I’m the one to blame, I should feel ashamed of every insignificant choice I have made. And life is yours to take, but when they sang your praises as the curtain closed I had to turn away. Tell me that I’m wrong; I must be missing something. Safe to say it was always gonna end this way. Did I fail your test this time? I came crawling back again.
