Straightaway - Over And Out Lyrics
I never wanted you to be waiting, never intended to be defeatedTo write this song ink these words, find the meaning in despairI convinced myself that the beauty is in the attemptI couldn’t look away and I bore all this contemptI gave up on myself and fought for what I thought was rightI barely questioned my weakened faith in hope with a few doubtsI confused daylight with the darkest of nightsIt was all meant to shine, it ended up a burning lieI blamed my own shortcomings with guilt and desolationI came back to my senses to think we’re better off this wayI kept longing for a better change in vainAssuming the end would justify the painI gave up on myself and fought for what I thought was rightI barely questioned my weakened faith in hope with a few doubtsI confused daylight with the darkest of nightsIt was all meant to shine, it ended up a burning lieWhy try to make amendswith no heart left to mendNothing but a bitter endI gave up on myself and fought for what I thought was rightI barely questioned my weakened faith in hope with a few doubtsI confused daylight with the darkest of nightsIt was all meant to shine, it ended up a burning lie
