"In Response To Stars" lyrics

It was the last time we lost a fight without you
And finally now you understand
This was the dream and answer
Never stop this
All I wanted was you by my side

Those were true days
I watched them fall away
These boards will break
These boards will break against my ribs

We've shown ourselves
With our pride atrophied
A virtue burns hot enough to cauterize
These boards will break
These were true days
I watched them fall away

I don't blame the last step in the sequence
It was your way
So many times we cursed your name

And I do not say I hold no regrets when I close my eyes
Just think of the things we could have done

I've shown myself
With my pride atrophied
I hope you know we always loved you
Forgive me for all things

Even though I watched us fall, fall away
With determination we all carry on
And with determination we all must live on
We've all learned things from those days
I know that we all have grown
Even I now feel a calm like I have never known
Like I have never known
