Wilderness

[Verse 1]

I'll always remember the day we first met

The fires of September still burning their best

The sky full of smoke

Full of promise of anything possible

[Verse 2]

Felt like a dream to feel safe in your arms

Despite all the warnings, I fell for your charms

The earth opened up like desire

It was unstoppable

[Pre-Chorus]

You lay down your history, your battle scars

But all I could see were the stars

[Chorus]

So I don't wanna blame you but my heart is shattered

How could you leavе us like none of it matterеd?

This kind of love comes but once, maybe twice if you're lucky

Time's running out

So why won't you talk to me, tell me your troubles?

I'm right here beside you, the calm in your storm

But you kissed me and walked away into your wilderness

[Verse 3]

You came back, you begged me, I bought what you sold

I gave my forgiveness, I set the bar low

'Cause all along you had another life somewhere

With somebody other than me

[Pre-Chorus]

I let myself down in the name of love

Chasing illusions of you

[Chorus]

So I don't wanna blame you but my heart is shattered

I should have known better, I should have run faster

This kind of love comes but once, maybe twice if you're lucky

Time's running out

So why won't you talk to me, tell me your troubles?

I'm right here beside you, the calm in your storm

But you kissed me and walked away into your wilderness

[Verse 4]

We do best we can with the tools that we’ve got

But a home can't survive a foundation of rot

There's no pretty words to dress up the betrayal

As anything but what it is

[Chorus]

So I guess I can blame you, 'cause my heart is shattered

You took what you wanted like none of it mattered

'Cause this kind of love comes but once, maybe twice if you're lucky

Your luck is all run out

So don’t try to tell me you're sorry

I'm so tired of all of your bullshit, your weakness and fear

You can take yourself into your wilderness and disappear
