I try to see your good intentions
Why I cannot reach your heart
I know our love isn't what it used to be
And now, after all we've said and done
How do we keep the rising sun from shutting down?
Are we what we pretend to be?
* And we couldn't find What we were looking for
We failed to read The writing on the wall
So we tried to hold on Tried to hold on
For a while we thought we had it all, a thousand
Lies, they only fed the height that couldn't last
Are we what we pretend to be?
( * )
For they hold on, all along And I couldn't see
I should've let you known So we tried to hold on
Tried to hold on
Somehow, it all fell apart
And we knew it right from the start
For they hold on, all along And I couldn't see I should've let you known
So we tried to hold on Tried to hold on
