lyrics

If you have the means, don't ask.
There's no need to hold your tongue like that.
My body is a bridge and may collapse
My body is a bridge and may collapse
But it can be saved.

If you have the means, why wait?
There's no reason to anticipate
You’re standing on the edge but it may break.
So fall in to the void and spin away.

When all is said and done
We will lose everything
But all these battle scars
They're still reminding me

Now for the last time won’t you please just take my hand and make this true?

If you have the means, please stay.
If only for a momentary phase.
You leave me with a taste I can't escape.
This body is afire, can you relate?

This is the last time I can reach out to you
My will is strong but I can't take the abuse
So if you’re listening I need to be true
This is an offer that we cannot refuse

When all is said and done
We will lose everything
and all these battle scars
They're still reminding me

This is a gift we have
It's time we play that way
We’ll make this work some how
This is our destiny

Now for the last time won’t you please just take my hand and make this true?

You’re never gonna make it on your own,
With an iron cell around your heavy heart.
(The world keeps spinning).
