lyrics

And what have we become?
In a world of failing schemes and broken dreams
We make ourselves a home
And time keeps moving on
And with so much left undone
We run to try and catch the setting sun
But fall along the way
As our tired useless legs betray
The masters that they once obeyed
And who could even say,
If we're worthy of our days,
And the untold prices we have paid?

But this is who we are
And this is how we'll always be
Right from the start
You came to comfort me
And deep in the heart
You're still the one for me

And what are we to say?
Rehearsing all the lies we tell to convince ourselves
That everything's ok
We're a million miles away
And memories fade as we forget
Just why we made the choices that we made
But the consequence remains
It makes it harder as we try to say goodbye
Say goodbye to yesterday
So we leave it up to fate
And the bitter pill we swallow
Still reminds us that it's much too late

But this is who we are
And this is how we'll always be
Right from the start
You came to comfort me
And deep in the heart
You're still the one for me

So is it something real,
Or is it something I just feel,
As my heart keeps turning inside out?
And I couldn't say for sure
If I can do it anymore
And my thoughts are spinning 'round and around
And if it's fear I feel it too
This isn't me, it isn't you
But if something's meant to be
What do you do?
And I've got nothing left inside
And there's nothing more to hide
But I can't fill the empty days we've left behind

This is who we are
And this is how we'll always be
Right from the start
You came to comfort me
And deep in the heart
You're still the one for me

So hold me in your arms just one last time
And hope the sun will never have to rise
And if it helps just close your eyes
And we'll pretend it's not goodbye

This is who we are
And this is how we'll always be
And right from the start
You came to comfort me
And deep in the heart
You're still the one for me
And deep in the heart
You're still the one for me
And deep in the heart
You're still the one for me
