The Bottom

(album: The Witness - 2008)

It was 5 am and you were
Standing soaking wet outside my door
Let go of your shame dear
Please come in from the storm and I'll explain

Now as I gaze into your eyes
I see inherently nothing
So I'll wait
But you're too close to the bottom
I'm too late, this time

Your shocking stare was uncomprehensive
I could see betrayal in your tears
I'm sorry it's not easy
I'm sorry that you gave it all to me

Now as I gaze into your eyes
I see them flowing like a river
So I'll swim
To keep your head above the water
I'm too late, this time

You would give me your soul
But it would never be enough for me
I blame myself for this pain
I'm letting you know that none of it's your fault.

You're shattered and broken down
Without a sound
Please hold on

You would give me your soul
But it would never be enough for me
I blame myself for this pain
I'm letting you know that
You would give me your soul
But it would never be enough for me
