Light This City - Beginning With Release

Second chances only create even more seconds to wait.
Everyone starts over.
Turns a new leaf.
But you're weak.
And even the weight proves much too heavy when your already burdened with a chip on your shoulder
That cuts as deep as her treachery...
And this release.
It won't be the end for me.
Our tug of war taught me resilience and a few more things.
I was only armed for battle you see.
But I didn't lose because I'm not lost.
And you have to be strong to keep holding on.
But it takes strength of mind to know when to release.
Is there release without forgiveness?
If I release, will I still remember?
I was only armed for battle you see.
But I didn't lose because I'm not lost.
And you have to be strong to keep holding on.
But it takes strength of mind to know when to release.
You've been saving all your pennies just to flip the coin.
Well heads up.
High roller.
All your going to see is tails.
As you watch me leave.
I never was your lady luck
And I'm fucking done being your second best.
No need to worry about me.
I'll bounce back from this with ease.
What a shame you won't be so lucky.
Cause you're not going up. And you're not going down...
You'll just waver back and forth.
Still impossible to please.
Cause you're not going up.
And you're still not fucking going down...
You'll just waver back and forth.
Still impossible to please.
And this release.
It won't be the end for me.
Our tug of war taught me resilience and a few more things.

You say we've only just begun.
And I say our beginning is done.
You never should have left.
No.
You never should have come.
You say we've only just begun.
And I say our beginning is done.
You never should have left.
No.
You never should have come.
