Powerlines
I've been failing you for way too long
Hanging on the shoulder
Of the voice that says "you're always wrong,
They're better off without you"
I'd lie if I said otherwise
Sometimes it makes me spiteful
Witnessing them push you to the ground
I feel a tragic kind of fortitude
Digging myself deeper down the slope
And at the crossroad I will keep my load
Cause I'm tired of admitting my defeats
I have felt you waking up at night
Staring at the ceiling
As thoughts start punching left and right, bruising up your being
I wish I could apologise
For putting you through all these trials
Forcing you to question your beliefs
I feel a tragic kind of bliss
Knowing it don't matter what I do,
It won't get better
And at the crossroad I will stay for now
Cause I'm tired of admitting my defeats
The powerlines between the pines
Black beneath the dusk blue sky
Almost like a finish line
Hanging on the shoulder
Of the voice that says "you're always wrong,
They're better off without you"
I'd lie if I said otherwise
Sometimes it makes me spiteful
Witnessing them push you to the ground
I feel a tragic kind of fortitude
Digging myself deeper down the slope
And at the crossroad I will keep my load
Cause I'm tired of admitting my defeats
I have felt you waking up at night
Staring at the ceiling
As thoughts start punching left and right, bruising up your being
I wish I could apologise
For putting you through all these trials
Forcing you to question your beliefs
I feel a tragic kind of bliss
Knowing it don't matter what I do,
It won't get better
And at the crossroad I will stay for now
Cause I'm tired of admitting my defeats
The powerlines between the pines
Black beneath the dusk blue sky
Almost like a finish line
