burning books - we try lyrics

Loading...

a tired man without a plan sits down at an empty table
a lonely girl sits in a chair and believes that she’s not able
to control her life or learn to love
her hands and her gaze are unstable

an old widow shuffles idly by as she sees but does not care
a young boy sits on the edge of his bed, eyes closed without a prayer
to the god that he’s been told is real
but isn’t sure is there

all of us are little parts of something tightly knit
yet sometimes it’s hard to see how the pieces really fit
as we’re blown away by the cold and bitter yet unseen wind
we’re all connected by the knowledge that our lives will one day end

an old man hunches on the steps and remembers years gone by
a mother’s son runs past the porch, young eyes glued to the sky
he’ll remember days when he looked up
and still had the will to try

a weeping wife kneels at the grave and bends her head down low
a forgotten son runs as fast as he can with nowhere left to go
just last night he stood on the edge
of a rusty framed window

all of us are trying our best to fix ourselves
all of us are trying our best to find someone to help
we try and try but at the end of the day why try anymore?
if at the end of our lives all that’s waiting is an unfamiliar door?

a dad paces in the waiting room, his son on the other side
of a thin wall and a swinging door that do little to hide
the broken remains of a little boy
who once looked up at the sky
