I strive to give you thoughts that bring you home

Bring your eyes to setting sun

Bring truth to a woman's tongue

I strive but we destroy what we have won

Believe the ties our world has run

Bring fault to all we've done

I can't be forgiving with your arms around me

Hollow hills will slowly turn (I strive)

And I can't be forgiving with your around me

Wooden cities always burn

I strive

I look sick but I belong

I feel grime beneath my tongue

From dreams I never won

I strive to know your body better now

Without the sign your family found

What proof of where we're bound?

I can't be forgiving with your arms around me

Hollow hills will slowly turn (I strive)

And I can't be forgiving with your arms around me

Wooden cities always burn

I strive

I strive

I strive

I strive
