Paroles de Tired Hands

It fell from heaven on an anchor Dragged our love to the sea I fought a wave of hesitation To keep reminding myself to breath The world is sinking into me and through it It’s all too exhausting So retreat from all the years we don’t have or carry on There’s an old fire in your chest and it does a violent dance I can’t keep fighting your battles when my patience is spent What’s the point in finding balance if you never make amends And we all die in our struggles with the same tired hands? Put your beliefs in the ground and let your love run amok We choose distractions over sleep And find no answers in between I feel defeated and bruised but I’ll learn to make do Before I find myself as fragile as you Knowing all these years will put you in a grave Knowing all these years that I don’t have the heart to bear
