"Lone Survivor" lyrics

"Lone Survivor"

I'm the lone survivor of men I've never known
Say that I'm inspired as I inherit everything I own
Tell me that I'm worth it and only taking mine
And if I don't deserve it, then tell me why I take most of the time

I'm striding out and still falling behind

If I could take a moment outside of my head
Then I would tell you, darling, the things I should have said
But I'm calcifying, I feel it in my bones
And it's getting harder the more that I'm alone

Make an empty promise and do it all again
And if I'm being honest, it's bothering me less than I pretend
Maybe I'm complacent, maybe I'm content
But either way I'm waiting, waiting on what hasn't happened yet

You asked to talk, I sang a song instead

If I could take a moment outside of my head
Then I would tell you, darling, the things I should have said
But I'm calcifying, I feel it in my bones
And it's getting harder the more that I'm alone
