Cycle Through - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Frigid cold December

Seven hour drive home

Felt you slipping quickly

From that point on

Broke it to me gently

Happened so abruptly

Never feel completely

The same again

I drove away, my heart in hand

You said, "I'm sorry for who I am"

This time is the last time, I swear to God, I mean it

There's nothing left to salvage, I'm lost but not defeated

Breathe life to the embers, fly away a phoenix

I'll cycle through without you

Do you take me for a coward

For running without fighting?

For being realistic?

Of course you do

How could I not see it?

Still, I can't believe it

Living like your mother

Taught you to

You threw away your best laid plans

They slipped through hands like grains of sand

This time is the last time, I swear to God, I mean it

There's nothing left to salvage, I'm lost but not defeated

Breathe life to the embers, fly away a phoenix

I'll cycle through without you

This time is the last time, I swear to God, I mean it

There's nothing left to salvage, I'm lost but not defeated

Breathe life to the embers, fly away a phoenix

I'll cycle through without you
