Straightaway - Over And Out lyrics

I never wanted you to be waiting, never intended to be defeated To write this song ink these words, find the meaning in despair I convinced myself that the beauty is in the attempt I couldn't look away and I bore all this contempt I gave up on myself and fought for what I thought was right I barely questioned my weakened faith in hope with a few doubts I confused daylight with the darkest of nights It was all meant to shine, it ended up a burning lie I blamed my own shortcomings with guilt and desolation I came back to my senses to think we're better off this way I kept longing for a better change in vain Assuming the end would justify the pain I gave up on myself and fought for what I thought was right I barely questioned my weakened faith in hope with a few doubts I confused daylight with the darkest of nights It was all meant to shine, it ended up a burning lie Why try to make amends With no heart left to mend Nothing but a bitter end I gave up on myself and fought for what I thought was right I barely questioned my weakened faith in hope with a few doubts I confused daylight with the darkest of nights It was all meant to shine, it ended up a burning lie
