Lyrics: Chrissy Costanza/Josh Gilbert
Music: Chrissy Costanza/Josh Gilbert
So you still ask me, “Why is the river dry?”
The glass isn’t empty, you knocked it onto its side
I’ve felt so heavy trying to keep you light
Fight away your night, but I'm not this time
I won't save, I won't save under your salvation (Salvation), no
And I can't take, I can't take all your expectations (Expectations), oh, no
All the ways, all the ways I can feel it changing
I won't save, I won't save under your salvation, now (Salvation)
I’m too tired now, please don’t want from me
Let the empire fall for a chance at peace
But I won’t hide the pain to put your mind at ease
I let them all down, the fall from grace is heavenly
Would you be kinder? If one day the tables turned?
No, I’m not a fighter, but I take the battles you earn
Put out your fires, make sure you don’t get hurt
But I’m the one who burns
When you never learn
I won't save, I won't save under your salvation (Salvation), no
And I can't take, I can't take all your expectations
I’m too tired now, please don’t want from me
Let the empire fall for a chance at peace
But I won’t hide the pain to put your mind at ease
I let them all down, the fall from grace is heavenly
(I can't take, I can't take) Free fallin' down
(I can't take, I can't take) Straight through the clouds
(I can't take, I can't take) Too far gone to turn around
(I can't take, I can't take) I don't want to save you now
I don't want to save you now
(I don't want to save you now)
I'm too tired now, please don't run from me
Let the empire fall for a chance at peace
But I won't hide the pain to put your mind at ease
I let them all down, the fall from grace is heavenly
The fall from grace is heavenly (Heavenly)
The fall from grace is heavenly (Heavenly)
So you still ask me, "Why is the river dry?"
