Hotel Books - Ten Steps Forward lyrics

Like a hunter in the woods looking for something Without a plan you can't get anything And imperfection drove me to see nothing And that's why I'm not breathing And imperfection makes more sense when put in the context of human existence And I can say I promise truth to this Even though I know I probably don't And forever is everything to me It's been projected through all of my dreams And I held you tight and said I wanted to love you forever Even though I know I probably won't I guess I've been caught I guess this is all my fault I guess I've been caught I gave you all I got I exist for two reasons and two reasons alone The first is that God was willing to take a gamble on a soul And the second was because the ones who made me took too long to let go Sons today are the reenactment of cheap p**nography And daughters are taught only to love if they can break through a gla** ceiling And these double standards have become a disease And diseases tend to dictate what we think we can be So we hunt the weak The ones that are infected in the feet So they can't run from the hunters when we don't get what we need And a good hunter knows to use every part of the animal Like I did to all my friends in the final hour When I finally felt alone I realized you can't cry wolf when you're already devoured And to let the ones who felt empowered feel useless when I drained them of their blood And I told them it was all in the name of love I guess I've been caught I guess this is all my fault I guess I've been caught I gave you all I got I guess I've been caught I guess that this is all my fault I guess I've been caught I gave you all I got So darling, whisper in my ear Tell me things are going to change Tell me I'm not supposed to be this way Tell me it's my time Tell me that I've been brave Whisper in my ear Tell me not to be afraid Tell me my fear is okay I'm okay I've done this the best way I guess I've been caught I guess that this is all my fault I guess I've been caught I gave you all I got I guess I've been caught I guess that this is all my fault I guess I've been caught I gave you all I got
