Svalbard

To Wilt Beneath the Weight

Svalbard


As I stand here all I see
Is everything I left behind me
Everything I sacrificed
So much loss for just one fragile cause
I worked so hard but it doesn't work
So much loss for just one cause
So much loss

A flower wilting
Beneath the weight
A flower wilting
Beneath the weight
Of this sinking ship
This sinking ship
It pulls me down
It pulls me down away from you
And the loneliness, it makes me stupid

Completely at the mercy
Of every form of insincerity
Completely at thе mercy
Of every form of insincеrity
Maintaining this illusion
Makes me manic and weak
So I guess all that's left
Is for me to grit my teeth

Grit my teeth when they've just been broken
Soldier on in the face of fear
Grit my teeth when they've just been broken
Soldier on in the face of fear
Too much is all it takes to be here
How much will it cost to persevere?
Too much is all it takes to be here
How much will it cost to persevere?

A flower wilting
Beneath the weight
Of this sinking ship
I can't keep drowning for this

As I stand here all I see
Is everything I left behind me
Everything I sacrificed
So much loss for one fragile cause
I worked so hard but it does not work
So much loss for just one cause
So much loss

Grit my teeth when they've just been broken
Soldier on in the face of fear
Grit my teeth when they've just been broken
Soldier on in the face of fear
Too much is all it takes to be here
How much will it cost to persevere?
Too much is all it takes to be here
How much will it cost to persevere?
