After We Go lyrics

Do you know how we got right here
Is it something we probably asked for
All the answers are not quite clear
But the question is one that you can't ignore

We walk around like we don't live with consequence
And still believing what we do is right
So how's it feel to run and hide for your defense
You're not the only one to face the fight

It's been a long time
Believe it or not

What you realize
You feel inside
Who'd ever thought you'd sit here and compromise

I don't know why
It has to be
Nothing in life would ever come for free

I never thought I'd hear you say
That everything would be OK

Where are you going
If you don't know where you're coming from
Then you don't know where you're going to
That's fine, it will be alright

What you're looking for

Thinking back we were a struggling
All the people, places
We've left behind
What others want you are a struggling it
Second chances are the hardest things to find

Another day, another sun is gone
And everything around us
Slowly wears us down
So you pleasantly distract yourself
Time is passing
Don't forget to look around

What if the life we knew wasn't dead

One thing that I must agree with
You got to step outside the picture just to see it
Everybody loses it sometimes
My eyes can't fake what you feel inside

Should of known the way I saw you standing
Was it everything you imagined could happen
Tried once but I got distracted
Head first and there's no time for reaction

Got to go, got to get things moving

I don't have another reason
Why all these thoughts are floating through my head
It seems I took myself through seasons
I take it all myself, my pain instead
Break me off a little something
Why do I always have to compromise

Let me be myself just one time
Don't want to search for what I cannot find
My patience running thin with this state
There's only so much one can really take

You said that you'd never hurt me
But you did anyway

My Piece of mind now deserts me
(It fills my mind with despair)
And here I lie

Down in the cold again
But still I do pretend
That I have no one
But myself to count on

Cuz I've tried to work things out
But a little mistake has slowed me down
To find out what I'm chasing after

Another day of discomfort

How did we let this shit get complicated
When all of this time we knew that we were wasting

Why do I feel like I always fall through
Sometimes I feel like I just want to be you
Now that I know that it's harder to be true
I realize that I have to believe you

And it's so hard to see
But it's never enough, never enough
Anyway

How can I start the day without a destiny

Before you go, just listen
And I'm sorry
For all the things I've done to you
You know that I'm sorry
For all the things I've put you through

You see I
You see I never did realize
How it must have felt in your eyes
Complacency was my disguise
Until the day that I found you
Will I ever see the day
When I turn around and say
Things shouldn't be this way
But all I know is

Feel me.
Why are you hiding?
Why are you siding?
What happened to my friend?
I see your back now is turned to me.
As I ask you,
Cuz I don't understand.
I don't understand.
I don't under...

Hey now.
Never have I wanted to try.
Hey now.
Look into my face as you lie.
Hey now.
Tell me why I'm willing to die for this again.
Hey now.
Thinking that the worst is behind.
Hey now.

Just once I'd like to show
A part of me that's in control
I don't know how to say
But I would regret it anyway

Just once I'd like to feel
That space and time were standing still
And If I look away
I'm guaranteed you'll stay the same

Can you sit here all alone
The more I try the more it seems I'm starting to run
We've been waiting for so long

Here we are alone again
Isn't that what you wanted my friend
But it's hard to believe

And many things we overcame
Do you want to let it slip away
Don't make a mistake

We must return to another day
With the courage to cross, you know we must fight
It's for more than ourselves

Something tells me I'm not alone
It seems as though we've lost control of
Everything that we have fought for

Listen to the wind blow
Watch the sun rise

Run in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your lies

And if
You don't love me now
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain

Listen to the wind blow
Down comes the night

Run in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your lies

Break the silence
Damn the dark
Damn the light

And if
