Water Worship Pray
We're standing on a cliffside
No one here to blame
A million little splinters
It cuts worse this way
We don't want to call it
So we go out tonight
Denial or a hail mary?
Revival or a funeral rite?
Close to the end now I can feel it
Something in me starts to scream
How can two people fall apart when they both want the same thing?
How can my happiness be you, but I'm not happy at all?
Before I lose the courage
Take my little bit of faith
In the middle of the sidewalk
Black streaks down my face
It was in sterile silence
We both withered away
If you've got an inch to give me
We can water, worship, pray
Let this be a vigil and not a wake
Let this be a vigil and not a wake
Our love is good, our love is great
Let this be a vigil and not a wake
Flash back to that summer
Wine flushed, golden haze
Even San Francisco shined for us that day
We said this was forever
Our island just for two
Over holy communion
First peace I ever knew
Can't love you well enough to keep you or enough to let you go
I'd rather stay in purgatory with you than heaven alone
Turns out you can mean forever, but you just can't make it true
Before I lose the courage
Take my little bit of faith
In the middle of the sidewalk
Black streaks down my face
It was in sterile silence
We both withered away
If you've got an inch to give me
We can water, worship, pray
If we fall apart, how do I tell my friends
That we loved and we tried and we failed in the end?
It took getting to the edge
Now I'm wide awake
Like a cold splash of water straight to my face
Now all I know is
Don't go, don't leave
Let's fight it out
Come back to me
I see it in your eyes that I'm still your paradise
Let's call a truce, go to war
Leave it all on the floor
Before there's nothing to fight for
Before I lose the courage
Take my little bit of faith
In the middle of the sidewalk
Black streaks down my face
It was in sterile silence
We both withered away
If you've got an inch to give me
We can water, worship, pray
No one here to blame
A million little splinters
It cuts worse this way
We don't want to call it
So we go out tonight
Denial or a hail mary?
Revival or a funeral rite?
Close to the end now I can feel it
Something in me starts to scream
How can two people fall apart when they both want the same thing?
How can my happiness be you, but I'm not happy at all?
Before I lose the courage
Take my little bit of faith
In the middle of the sidewalk
Black streaks down my face
It was in sterile silence
We both withered away
If you've got an inch to give me
We can water, worship, pray
Let this be a vigil and not a wake
Let this be a vigil and not a wake
Our love is good, our love is great
Let this be a vigil and not a wake
Flash back to that summer
Wine flushed, golden haze
Even San Francisco shined for us that day
We said this was forever
Our island just for two
Over holy communion
First peace I ever knew
Can't love you well enough to keep you or enough to let you go
I'd rather stay in purgatory with you than heaven alone
Turns out you can mean forever, but you just can't make it true
Before I lose the courage

Black streaks down my face

If we fall apart, how do I tell my friends
That we loved and we tried and we failed in the end?

Before I lose the courage
Take my little bit of faith
In the middle of the sidewalk
Black streaks down my face
It was in sterile silence
We both withered away
If you've got an inch to give me
We can water, worship, pray
