SayWeCanFly - Faithful



Seven months ago I buried something good
But I never marked the spot so now it's lost
And I've been trying to take it up with every part of me
But I'm so weak that I can barely move my tongue
To defend myself against the odds that point straight at me
And how I tried my best to keep you on your strings
And how disgustingly I lied
And all the times I made you cry
With my unappreciation for the little things you did
But look at me now, through your sparkling little eyes
The ones I used to fill with tears, the ones that I need now, more than ever
But you're happy now, and I don't blame you
You deserve a lot more than I ever gave you

You had strength and I had time but that's no excuse
For me to stab you right in the back
And the worst part is all you ever did was break your back for me...
And still I wasn't faithful to you

And I convinced myself that we'd come to a compromise
I'll take your heart and use it how the hell I please
With all the chances I was given to say no to the temptation
I said no to confrontation and I hid it all away
In a box I keep inside my chest...
The key was hidden in the loneliness
As I searched around the dark and found a light..
As you carried it away, I was forced to realize
That I had taken all we had
And it was never to be seen again
You had strength and I had time but that's no excuse
For me to stab you right in the back
And the worst part is all you ever did was break your back for me...
And still I wasn't faithful to you...
And in the end I still lost you
