There were hopes in the backyard, cold and forgotten as the old beech trees, that were statuesque and yet a testament to the time we spent in relative innocence
And i used to gaze out of the window pretend that i could see, try and watch them dance with the wind and try to bring the past back to me
Oh I could beg, oh I could pray
For you not to look at him as if to say
We're not who we were yesterday
But what would that attain if nothing were to change
Paralysis exempts decay and I know you're afraid to fade, but a moment can't change after it's made
Oh there's no way home
These streets are so cold, there’s no place to roam
Oh I could beg
Oh I could pray
To bring that you
Back to that me
Oh I could beg oh I could pray
For you not to look at him as if to say
We're not who we, were yesterday
But what would we attain if nothing were to change
Paralysis exempts decay, and I know you're afraid to fade, but a moment can't change after it's made
It's okay to fear tragedy, but don't admit defeat, cause I am you, as much as you are me
I am you, as you are me.
