The Race Lyrics

The Race lyrics

Second Place to you is the last place I ever thought Id be

and in this
race the selfish survive while the selfless suffocate in suffering

Im
choking on the words that kept us alive

So kiss me and them and all we
had goodbye



Where was I?

When they kicked out the lights

and when your world turns black you cant take back

all the lines youve
crossed and trust youve lost 



So take my hand, no, not to hold 

You could use the extra fingers to count your mistakes

because this
distance has only lead to deception

a curse for every mile

a lie
for every smile



Where was I?

When they kicked out the lights


and when your world turns black you cant take back

all the lines
youve crossed and trust youve lost 



Drown in your goodbyes, and
miss what we had



Foreign tongues are burning above self-righteous
heads 

you're so dexterous and articulate and i count on too many fingers
and friends.

. . .and friends. 



if your body is a temple then
your roof is on fire



Where was I?

When they kicked out the
lights 

and when your world turns black you cant take back 

all the
lines youve crossed and trust youve lost



Drown in your goodbyes,
and miss what we had
