will the same mistakes haunt you like they used to do?
or are you afraid that your body won’t let you choose?
you are your father’s son, and the same disease that holds you held him once!
and i know if you push this hard it will still take hold.
you cannot accept the things you can’t control.
and i know your mind is young but your body’s old.
and you can’t forgive youself (though no one else could blame you for this).
but hold on! hold on! hold on!
and already i can’t remember if the heart was ever aware
that the body it kept alive was wearing out, was shutting down.
and tonight, when it realized, you gave up, it cried out,
«only now i realize i always knew.»
been my favorite song for like a year now..the ending stanza still to this day sends chills down my spine and everything about this song is so transcendent and gorgeous. one of the best bands i could ever ask for.
I know but these days its a battle of ideas. I saw someone greater than an idea in a cathedral my own eyes my own intimate relationship with the universal sheppard. May have healed me from what i wont let you know
