There was hope when I was heart-sick There was a light within the gloom This is a last resort, this is our life support It's all I've got to see me through
But I've searched, and I find A shot in the dark is worth two in the eye We brought fire to a flood The dam holds fast, but it's never enough
So how could you break my faith so young? Surrender my fate, now the worst has come My flesh and my blood, my Moon and my Sun I'm not whole without you Can you hear me calling out your name? I see your face in every reflection Your laughter, like a knife through the tension
There in the ether floats a fragment of me A fate I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy The guilt of the survivor resides We suffer in silence, existing on the edge of a knife Your echo never fades
I've been lost in the ether Buried beneath this grief You left me calling your name Still floating weightless Forever faithless The dark grows near without you here
So how could you break my faith so young? Surrender my fate, now the worst has come My flesh and my blood, my Moon and my Sun I'm not whole without you
I clasped my hands, read every line I bent my knee a thousand times The wiser I grew, the more that I knew I was standing here alone
I was standing here alone Can you hear me calling out your name?
Find me in the gutter like a cigarette Who knew grief could cut me open like a bayonet?
Take me over the edge, I cannot bear this I surrender to fate, the worst has come
