lyrics

Have heart, forgive me, darling
"You're losing what captured me"
You say it's mind over matter
But your mind is going numb
Said you wanna live forever,
Now you've gotta go alone

Take this into context
And maybe you will learn
Make note of potent action

We see the pain of choice
We see the pain of choice

Gettin' sick with the hate and the bullshit
Gettin' sick with the craving for gain
Gettin' sick with these cutthroat feelings
Gotta get in touch with the simple things

Questions
Discussions
These fairy-tale ideals

We are one in the same
Drive is what separates

Have heart, forgive me, darling
"You're losing what captured me,"
You say it's mind over matter
But your mind is going numb
Said you wanna live forever
Now you gotta go alone

Gotta go alone

My pride objects
Your mind has failed
To receive

---

Have you seen the way you treat
The people that you meet
And ever stop to wonder
What if that were me?

Revise your thoughts
You repeat this state
Save it for those with dreams
Of lesser acclaim

I'm all out of pity
This change is for the best

I've been thinking that
I spend too much time
Being bitter
And oh, so cold
