In Response to Stars Lyrics

It was the last time (last time)
We lost a fight without... you
And finally now you understand
This was the dream and answer
Never stop this
All I wanted
Was you by my side
Those were true days
I watched them fall away
These boards will break

These boards will break against my ribs
We've shown ourselves
With our pride atrophied
A virtue burns hot enough to cauterize
These boards will break
Those were the days
I watched them fall away
I don't blame the last step in the sequence
It was your way
So many times we cursed your name

And I
I do not say
I hold no regrets
When I
Close my eyes
Just think of the things
We could have done
I've shown myself
With our pride atrophied
I hope you know we always loved you
Forgive me for all the things

Even though I watched us fall away
With determination we all carry on
With determination we all must fall
We've all learned things from those days
I know that we all have grown
Even I now feel a calm
Like I have never known 2x
