from all the plans that I've made
I tell myself not to believe
The things that I won't lose out
Time does not waste itself,
a dream cannot wake itself
The truth cannot disgrace itself
An unwritten prayer cannot
Arms cannot embrace themselves
A heart cannot break itself
And I cannot shake myself from you
We both know there's only so
Only so far you can reach,
only so long you can carry
So some of us learn how to live
with what we know we can't fix
So we walk tall and we act proud
and pretend that it's better than it is.
Time does not waste itself.
A dream cannot wake itself.
The truth cannot disgrace itself.
An unwritten prayer cannot
Our lungs cannot embrace themselves
Our heart cannot break itself
And I cannot shake myself from
Time does not waste itself
A dream cannot wake itself
The truth cannot disgrace itself
An unwritten prayer cannot save a life
Soul arms cannot embrace themselves
A heart cannot break itself
And I cannot shake myself from you
Don't leave me is all I hear me say
As you persuade me to throw
