SayWeCanFly - Faithful

Seven months ago I buried something good
But I never marked the spot so now it’s lost
It’s 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 right at me
How I tried my best to keep you on your strings
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 came to a compromise
I’ll take your heart and use it how the hell I please
With all the chance 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
You carried it away
I was forced to realize
You had taken all we had
And 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
