Moby - A Softer War lyrics

See how caution ruined me From the person I could never be Fighting truths I'd never know Finding truths of a failing home Every year thought I'd be through Live a life that was finally true I fell so hard back to what I knew I was always lost to you I was always lost to you Come on sit here my sweet son Come on sit here in the sun If you like you can always stay The academy won't turn you away No one knows the truth of me Never know what I can't see Want to stay here find a home All I want is to be less alone All I want is to be less alone Living on this lonesome road Years are gone not going slow I was one of a thousand boys k**ing off his love for noise Driving lost and going far Setting sights on a failing star I was lost and wanting more I was nothing more than loss I was nothing more than loss I was nothing more than loss See me out by the empty way See the struggle when it's locked away See me fail when you cut the string All the pain that a loss can bring See me burn in a suburban forge See me quiet in a softer war See me fading in the brittle noise See me lost with all the hollow boys See me hoping like this time it would End with something like a final good See me fail when you cut the string We never knew what a loss could bring I gave my lifetime away I gave my lifetime away I gave my lifetime away I gave my lifetime away I gave my lifetime away I gave my lifetime away I gave my lifetime away I gave my lifetime away
