The Burden - Paler Shade Lyrics

Sleep again we'll go away from the doubt
Dream again and then we'll figure it out

And this place may seem familiar
But I can't believe
That I could crave the worst of this sympathy
These words still hollow out
Carve shapes and see
The worst in you it got the best of me

If all we are is broken from the start
Then what's the point of being honest?
Please forgive the broken promises
I can't believe that I just can't seem to shake this off of me
Soak through my withered bones the only thing that I could ever know

Oh please believe, it's in the words and the way you say them
(Oh my god please believe)
Oh my god I know we're drowning in doubt
This is happening again
I should know myself, we're drowning

If all we are is broken from the start
Then what's the point of being honest?
Please forgive the broken promises
I can't believe that I just can't seem to shake this off of me
Soak through my withered bones the only thing that I could ever know

So why can't we just think this out?
And think about all the things that we're saying?

And if you stare at the sun for long enough
Maybe you'll leave yourself blind to everything
Was it worth it? To find yourself gripping onto everything?

Well I keep thinking about they way I've been
A paler shade of blue, and how I'm not enough for you
So I want to know, if I was the worst in you
