Conviction
[Verse 1]
This conviction, not commitment
You're a better man than I
But no better than a lie
A conviction, full of fiction
What's the point in trying to hide it
What's point in trying to hide

[Chorus]
We strain ourselves to the bones to see
The things we value eternally
Now what was it that you want from me
I'm not the boy that I used to be

[Verse 2]
Stop craving over hope that's not enough to change
In his pocket, found a spot of keeping up with things
To get the feeling the your nothing wasn’t worth the trade
Bet on, bet on nothing, waste your life away
I saw your silence, your sadness was a living thing
I shot it down, a sound that didn’t ring
Like a [?] of a guy that you couldn’t see
Tone deaf, solid beating in reality

[Verse 3]
From the sea to the city
We got golden hearts
Flower turning on the past
Time to make a mark
I was dying for it
I was dying for it
[Verse 4]
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I never really doubted all that I had

[Chorus]
We strain ourselves to the bones to see
The things we value eternally
Now what was it that you want from me
I'm not the boy that I used to be

[Verse 5]
Your veins are crimson, I long to see
The kiss inspired [?]
So bow your head, meditate with me
And miss the world as we

[Interlude]

[Outro]
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
