Give me some time I promise that i'll give you my mind You're still reeling from the battles you lost From my battles i've been counting the cost And i cant still see your fire's burning As the tears the burn your skin And every corner that you're turning Another step you take from him Well maybe this is nothing And i'm a coward underneath the stairs But my god it must be something Or why would either of us still be here These battles are all I have and they have nothing to do with you These battles are all I have I understand that the light that you gave It wasn't easy just to give it away So you collapse at the top of the stairs, singing I look up wondering how you got up there Each crime another photograph And each line another sin And I've tried and tried to keep up with you But the war in you won't let me in Maybe you're just broken Maybe I'm the same Maybe our lost battles Mean we're never gonna win again These battles are all I have and they have nothing to do with you Give me some time I promise that i'll give you my mind You're still reeling from the battles you lost From my battles i've been counting the cost
