Collateral Damage

Blind ambition

Like a torrent

Sweeps away every joy

Never praise

Any achievement

Make room for disappointment

I tried so many times it was never enough

The thought of it alone dismays me

I became a shadow I don't know who I was

Fighting myself, alone

Entrust my life to you

And it's all I've got

I don't get a second chance

Not even if I try

Put your faith in me

And I know you'll see

All the colours that I am

I was worth the pain

You've been a friend

I didn't need that

I dreamt of days without a fight

Not even once

Did you apologise

I know you did your best

And I forgive you

I tried so many times it was never enough

The thought of it alone dismays me

I became a shadow I don't know who I was

Fighting myself, alone

Entrust my life to you

And it's all I've got

I don't get a second chance

Not even if I try

Put your faith in me

And I know you'll see

All the colours that I am

I was worth the pain

So stand in your delusion

That one day you will find a solution

Talk to me

You choose a slow death

Every day a little more

Again and again until the circle closes

I know you did your best

And I did my best too

And I know you did your best

And I did too

Entrust my life to you

And it's all I've got

I don't get a second chance

Not even if I try

Put your faith in me

And I know you'll see

All the colours that I am

Entrust my life to you

And it's all I've got

I don't get a second chance

Not even if I try

Put your faith in me

And I know you'll see

All the colours that I am

I was worth the pain

Entrust my life to you

And it's all I've got

I don't get a second chance

Not even if I try

Put your faith in me

And I know you'll see

All the colours that I am

I was worth the pain
