never planned for this tableau, these spotlights, frigid calm
never wanted another side, but I'm across one from you tonight
never hated a moment of life 'til that light stuttered in your eyes
never wanted to go on, never thought this ward could smell of spite
 
never wanted to touch you
'til you opened your eyes
now I can't even face daylight
how will I ever survive?  
play this loud enough to reach her
 
 
never wanted to test this faith that heroes will provide
now I hate every coward footfall that can't bring a miracle to my side
if I can't stand up, how will I ever leave this floor?
if I can't forgive you, how will I explain this to our doors?
 
never wanted to touch you
'til you opened your eyes
now our house doesn't function
where will I go to survive?
