Wilderness

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'll always remember the day we first met The fires of September still burning their best The sky full of smoke Full of promise of anything possible [Verse 2] Felt like a dream to feel safe in your arms Despite all the warnings, I fell for your charms The earth opened up like desire It was unstoppable [Pre-Chorus] You lay down your history, your battle scars But all I could see were the stars [Chorus] So I don't wanna blame you but my heart is shattered How could you leavе us like none of it matterеd? This kind of love comes but once, maybe twice if you're lucky Time's running out So why won't you talk to me, tell me your troubles? I'm right here beside you, the calm in your storm But you kissed me and walked away into your wilderness [Verse 3] You came back, you begged me, I bought what you sold I gave my forgiveness, I set the bar low 'Cause all along you had another life somewhere With somebody other than me [Pre-Chorus] I let myself down in the name of love Chasing illusions of you [Chorus] So I don't wanna blame you but my heart is shattered I should have known better, I should have run faster This kind of love comes but once, maybe twice if you're lucky Time's running out So why won't you talk to me, tell me your troubles? I'm right here beside you, the calm in your storm But you kissed me and walked away into your wilderness [Verse 4] We do best we can with the tools that we've got But a home can't survive a foundation of rot There's no pretty words to dress up the betrayal As anything but what it is [Chorus] So I guess I can blame you, 'cause my heart is shattered You took what you wanted like none of it mattered 'Cause this kind of love comes but once, maybe twice if you're lucky Your luck is all run out So don't try to tell me you're sorry I'm so tired of all of your bullshit, your weakness and fear You can take yourself into your wilderness and disappear
