Brilliant Resilience

I never meant to bring this up But how could I be unbothered by the wait outside? Wake up, my love, wake up You're falling asleep, holding tight to names and numbers You dial in, but you can't remember From treading water to drowning in zeros I never guessed our time would be for letting go So spare me the pain and war stories I've spent days on end staring at the ceiling And old bones will break I smell the beginning of the end So dig that knife on in, knife on in Do you remember secrets that we told each other? We swore to never grow old; oh, watch me shake now Remember the accident? Remember what you said to make my head explode? So spare me the pain and war stories I've spent days on end staring at the ceiling And old bones will break I smell the beginning of the end So dig that knife on in, knife on in So dig that knife on in, yeah! Oh, freeze when life stops distracting you And breathe when moments are no excuse No excuse Leave when time only salts your wounds And grieve the death of your vibrant youth Stomp out your truth
