Lyrics

How
How do I trust you again
I know this isn't the end
But the things that you said
While you cried in my bed
God, how do I trust you
I can't
I can't just let you back in
I love your intent but
I didn't consent to this
Pain that is testing the
Faith I've professed to you
How could you do this to me
How could you do this to me
God, how
How do I rebuild a nest
When your voice tears a hole in my chest
When the branches all broke
From the truth that you spoke
So how would I rebuild
And yet
I won't give up or forget
I know it might happen
Again, but devotion
Is promising, knowing
The pain of your grip
God, I deserve better than this
I deserve better than this
You asked me for help, I know that the truth is
I still want your words, I still want your bruises
So why do I find it so hard to keep breathing
When can I give up my preemptive grieving
The sculpture is cracked but the chips tell a story
If your heart's beating, I know it beats for me
We will survive all the pain that we're borne through
If my heart's beating, I know it beats for you
I want the life I can see in our daydreams
Where we will grow old, grow laurels for Daphne
I want the future like never before you
I want it for myself, I want it for you
So what now
Why can't I just let this wound heal
We built this on pain and on fear
I know our love's real, but
I'm best as your meal, what
Innocence did this steal
For I am still yours to demand
With my promise, I understand
How it saved you
The words I engraved to
The love I belabor you
Always I am in your hands
Always I am in your hands
I'm sorry I'm scared, but please know the truth is
I need your love and I need your bruises
Promise you'll fight every day to keep breathing
Cause I cannot live with the thought of you leaving
The sculpture is cracked but the chips tell a story
If your heart's beating, I know it beats for me
We will survive all the pain that we're borne through
If my heart's beating, I know it beats for you
I want the life I can see in our daydreams
Where we will grow old, grow laurels for Daphne
I want the future like never before you
I want it for myself, I want it for you
I want it for us, I want it for Daphne
Daphne, for Daphne, just hold on for Daphne
I know she's a daydream, but do it for Daphne
Daphne, for Daphne, just hold on for Daphne
If you can't do it for me, then do it for Daphne
Daphne, for Daphne, just hold on for Daphne
One day, we'll hold her, our baby, our Daphne
Daphne, for Daphne, just hold on for Daphne
Someday, she'll hear us, our baby, our Daphne
Daphne, for Daphne, just hold on for Daphne
I won't let go, I will hold you for Daphne
