I woke up early and I can't see the light
My back is broad but it's been a long and lonely night
What if I'm a fool for even trying
To right the wrongs when all we had is dyingLike moving shadows, we dance around remains
The burning embers illuminate my shame
So yes, I am a fool for even trying
To right the wrongs when all we had is dyingIt's easier to leave, not to face the pain
With everything to lose, nothing left to gainBroken, empty promises you made
Token, empty gestures that you made
I am reeling, reelingEasier to leave so you walked away
With everything to lose, there's nothing left to sayYou disappoint me with a Judas Kiss
Crown and anoint me, the poison pours from your lips
So yes, I am a fool for even trying
To right the wrongs when all we had is dyingIt's easier to leave, not to face the pain
With everything to lose, nothing left to gainBroken, empty promises you made
Unspoken, did you ever mean to stay?
I am reeling, reelingSo yes, I am a fool for even trying
To right the wrongs when all we had is dying
I am that fool that's still trying
To right the wrongs when all we had is dyingIt's easier to leave so you walked away
With everything to lose, there's nothing left to sayBroken, empty promises you gave
Token, empty gestures that you made
Unspoken, did you ever mean to stay?
I am reeling, reeling
I am reeling, I am betrayed
