Lyrics
a lost cadet in the falling sun
the stakes are high but nobody has won
the blood on their faces
the gleam in their pasts
the conquest of a journey
and some freedom to grasp
they pick it up to break it down
the world is turning I still want you around
its a parlor trick this caustic game it makes me sick
we all start and leave without a name
we ruin our days with self-indulged pain ALWAYS THE SAME
and drink it down the same life-giving vein
but the sweat rages on
and the heart of a champion emerges
the facts you’re never learning
its matters of lack deserving
I thought we’d be
dead.
instead its a harder way to go..
I want you to know..
Always want you to know
*bridge*
its a gruesome end to see
what becomes of me
but the proper way to send me off
is drinks and calvary
Chorus
its hard enough thing to live a life.
when you’ve seen this horrid way of mine
its hard enough to bring this truth
we’re on the path to something new
he takes a hard pass
a jab to the left
the opponents getting messy
I just don’t have any strength left
to
fight with you
I only want to see it through
the guard is down
the fight is done
the dust is settled
this doesn’t feel like fun
who won who lost
I can’t be, was this the cost?
Whos there
whos left?
whos inside my why head
why can't we rest?
its hard enough to live a lie
get it all off your chest
and breathe
it's a gruesome end to see
what becomes of me
but the proper way to send me off
is drinks and calvary
it's hard enough thing to live a life.
when you’ve seen this horrid way of mine
its hard enough to bring this truth
we’re on the path to something new
