I tried I failed to believe In the reward I would receive If only heaven's distant sun Would burn away all the things I'd done
I tried to no avail To keep my eyes from growing pale But my vision came too late And my belief started to abate
Like a tide recedes from rocky shores I drew back no matter how much you implored I fail to see the beauty here Everything I loved has disappeared
Worlds collide without a sound And flames arise from frozen ground But nothing can bring back my faith You tried your best, but I'm afraid that it's too late
I looked into your eyes For some sign of surprise That I would question all of this That I would stand upon that precipice
The look would never come As you just stood there growing numb And your eyes dropped to the ground In search of something I might find profound
Like a tide recedes from rocky shores I drew back no matter how much you implored I fail to see the beauty here Everything I loved has disappeared
Worlds collide without a sound And flames arise from frozen ground But nothing can bring back my faith You tried your best, but I'm afraid that it's too late
I tried I failed to forgive For the life you made me live A confusing ride at best And at its worst it seemed so meaningless
If there's a lesson to be learned Some sort of wisdom to be earned It held too great a price It required too great a sacrifice
Like a tide recedes from rocky shores I drew back no matter how much you implored I fail to see the beauty here Everything I loved has disappeared
Worlds collide without a sound And flames arise from frozen ground But nothing can bring back my faith You tried your best, but I'm afraid that it's too late
Worlds collide without a sound And flames arise from frozen ground But nothing can bring back my faith You tried your best, but I'm afraid that it's too late
