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?
