A link in our gold chain broken By the diamond lies you told (means to an end) A change in the smell of you And a tint in your eyes were a means to an End Your pushing back I saw it coming up to take a swing But Mama, I bandaged the cracks And prayed for God to hold my hand But not even divinity can fill in what we lacked Now I only pray you understand
I'm Pushing Back And I don't wanna turn around Until I know you've gone (Pushing Back continued)
'cause I'm alive for the first time And I'm damned if I'll be tempted down Whatcha think you could rope in a hurricane With the promise of a good thing When he's already gone with the wind What, are you thinking I'd sink for the lure That you used to bring me in Well it was a just a means to an end
I'm Pushing Back And I don't wanna turn around Until I know you've gone
I remember candles I remember their scent I remember angels God knows where they went
I'm Pushing Back And I don't wanna turn around Until I know you've gone
