lyrics

Contempt is so much worse than
Just agreeing to part ways
Cuts like a rusty sawblade
Poison in your veins
We used to break this bread together
Used to sing familiar tunes
But I can’t change who I am for you

Remember when you told me
I should be the one to leave
You listed your conclusions
Of my motives and my deeds
I used to bring defense
but that would only make me bleed
Bleed right through
I won’t lose who i am for you

I have tried to be the bridge
I have tried with all my might
But i lost myself in sorrow
And i’m tired of the fight
May God forgive my weakness
But I only have one life - one life

I wish no curse upon you
But I cant stay in this place
I’ve seared my soul for far too long
On the fire of saving face
I must attend these wounds
In a manner that is true
I won’t change who i am for you
