In Good Company

"In Good Company-The Desperate"

I'd watch my hands if I had your sense of urgency
Cause every bit of the problem started with you and me
putting myself in situations, that only ended in frustration
and i'm not sure how much i was built to stand, no

I'm not giving up
(I'm not giving up)
You lost your touch
(you lost your touch)
It's come down to this

This is an anchor for you to realize,
that you gave your best
and the mess you're left with
was no surprise
Packing up and leaving
will only get you so far
you need to let go, let go
you need to let go, let go

It's gone from your fingertips to the palm of your hands
but the grip that you've got going for you, has moved you far away from land.
The ocean that you have been swimming in,
is filling up those lungs
But breathing was only necessary
when the words were on his tongue

I'm not giving up
(I'm not giving up)
You lost your touch
(you lost your touch)
It's come down to this

This is an anchor for you to realize,
that you gave your best
and the mess you're left with
was no surprise
Packing up and leaving
will only get you so far
you need to let go, let go
you need to let go, let go

There's a fire lit inside of me, a secret far too great to keep,
and though it's not your place to burden me, i could use the company.
I feel as though the world would see, what was never meant for beckoning.
But my eyes have begged a difference with my hands.
