Conviction

[Verse 1] This conviction, not commitment You're a better man than I But no better than a lie A conviction, full of fiction What's the point in trying to hide it What's point in trying to hide [Chorus] We strain ourselves to the bones to see The things we value eternally Now what was it that you want from me I'm not the boy that I used to be [Verse 2] Stop craving over hope that's not enough to change In his pocket, found a spot of keeping up with things To get the feeling the your nothing wasn’t worth the trade Bet on, bet on nothing, waste your life away I saw your silence, your sadness was a living thing I shot it down, a sound that didn’t ring Like a [?] of a guy that you couldn’t see Tone deaf, solid beating in reality [Verse 3] From the sea to the city We got golden hearts Flower turning on the past Time to make a mark I was dying for it I was dying for it [Verse 4] I'm sorry I'm sorry I never really doubted all that I had [Chorus] We strain ourselves to the bones to see The things we value eternally Now what was it that you want from me I'm not the boy that I used to be [Verse 5] Your veins are crimson, I long to see The kiss inspired [?] So bow your head, meditate with me And miss the world as we [Interlude] [Outro] I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
