lyrics

Nothing could save all that I had planned
I ended myself before I began
I put no foundation beneath the walls
I built up the framework and watched it fall
(Once it was set in motion, I had no choice at all)

Memory is not kind to those that fail
and valiant intentions will not prevail
With all my defiance left unheard
Here I lay conquered by only words

Since life’s a song that always gets played wrong
When do the mistakes become the part that belong?

How do I let it go?
