Testo Brilliant Resilience

I never meant to bring this up
but how could I be unbothered by
the wait outside?
Wake up my love, wake up.
You're falling asleep
holding tight
to names and numbers
You dial in but you can't remember
from treading water
to drowning in zeros
I never guessed our time would be for letting go

so spare me the pain
and war stories
I've spent days on and staring at the ceiling
and old bones will break
I smell the beginning of the end
so dig that knife on in, knife on in

Do you remember secrets that we told each other?
we swore to never grow old
Oh watch me shake now
remember the accident?
remember what you said to make my head explode?

so spare me the pain
and war stories
I've spent days on and staring at the ceiling
and old bones will break
I smell the beginning of the end
so dig that knife on in, knife on in
So dig that knife on in, yeah!

Oh, freeze when life stops distracting you
breathe when moments are no excuse
no excuse
leave
when time only salts your wounds
grieve
the death of your vibrant youth
stomp out your truth
