Longing Songtext
von The Lofty Pillars
Longing Songtext
It was 4 in the morning
I was suddenly awakened
By the words that you said
I remember the night
You were visibly shaking
And I still leave a few clothes in the bed
And that was the night we prayed for
Since it doesn′t justify the things that we did
Hanging over our heads
Like a baby who cries to be fed
I failed you tonight
If this is freedom, you thought
You were sadly mistaken
First you're broken and then blood
I remember your words
They cut like a razor
And I still think of words left unsaid
The winter was hot and we fought for our lives
I still can think of the screams and the cries
Falling from the ungrateful skies
Like a child who can′t but tries
I failed you tonight
We've seen when we are breaking
Brought to help sweeten our lives
The Queen and her fool
The Prince and the thief
Tricked with this ragged belief
Slowly fading away
Like a man who was born that way
I failed you tonight
I remember the night
You were visibly shaking
And I still think of words left unsaid
I was suddenly awakened
By the words that you said
I remember the night
You were visibly shaking
And I still leave a few clothes in the bed
And that was the night we prayed for
Since it doesn′t justify the things that we did
Hanging over our heads
Like a baby who cries to be fed
I failed you tonight
If this is freedom, you thought
You were sadly mistaken
First you're broken and then blood
I remember your words
They cut like a razor
And I still think of words left unsaid
The winter was hot and we fought for our lives
I still can think of the screams and the cries
Falling from the ungrateful skies
Like a child who can′t but tries
I failed you tonight
We've seen when we are breaking
Brought to help sweeten our lives
The Queen and her fool
The Prince and the thief
Tricked with this ragged belief
Slowly fading away
Like a man who was born that way
I failed you tonight
I remember the night
You were visibly shaking
And I still think of words left unsaid
