Hope Was Leaving

Met in November
And still I remember
The handful of words that she said
Met up months later,
I hoped I could make her
Stay with me but she left instead
So I chased her up
but that wasn't enough
Cuz I got my faults and she knows
I felt control slipping out from me

Your making this
the start of the earth
Your making this seem
so much clearer
How I got what I don't deserve
I see my worst in the rearview mirror

Could not see the light of day
I tried
But time was running out
Just when all hope was leaving

Kept open the door but
Now nobody's flawless
No one gets it all without pain
Don't need it perfect
so just make it worth it
We talk when it all falls away
Its ladders and snakes,
the choices you make
Its how we get up from the falls
So let me know
When I can't see myself

Your making this
the start of the earth
Your making this seem
so much clearer
How I got what I don't deserve
I see my worst in the rearview mirror

Could not see the light of day
I tried
But was blind til you arrived
Just when all hope was leaving
Just when all hope was gone

Your making this
the start of the earth
Your making this seem
so much clearer
How I got what I don't deserve
I see my worst in the rearview mirror

Could not see the light of day
I tried
But time was running out
Just when all hope was leaving
