hold your hands over your face
come in first but lose the race
try as you might
there’s no end in sight for us
do your best to cover up
help them all empty your cup
try as you might
there’s no end in sight for us
and i
wish it could be different
and why
can’t it be different
hold me close and hold me fast
bloody knuckles home at last
try as you might
there’s no end in sight for us

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
