This Too Shall Pass Songtext

von Five Times August

I've been wreckless with my own mind
I haven't let myself let go
Now I keep looking back on old times
Afraid to walk in the unknown
Yeah, I don't move that quick these days
But I don't have that much to say

So, I've been quiet in my own way
Sitting back and laying low
And what I need is just a small change
Because it's strange to be alone
Yeah, I don't really want that much
But what I want I cannot touch

So, please, have faith, my heart is not a stone
I am leaving the best part for you to own
And I am only standing back to take you in
Although I hope it lasts, I know this too shall pass

Now, I've been riding on the old wave
I'm out of style and nothing new
But if you want I'll say I'm OKAY
Then leave you left without a clue
And though it all may go unseen
I only wish I could come clean.

And I've been careless with my own mind
And holding back on what is true
And if I could, I'd walk a straight line
But I am blind and I am bruised
Yeah, I will someday make it out
Because with you I have no doubt

So, please, have faith, my heart is not a stone
I am leaving the best part for you to own
And I am only standing back to take you in
Although I hope it lasts, I know this too shall pass

So, please, have faith, my heart is not a stone
I am leaving the best part for you to own
And I am only standing back to take you in
Although I hope it lasts, I know this too shall pass
