Hippo Campus - Conviction lyrics

This conviction, not commitment
You're a better man than I
But no better than a lie
A conviction, full of fiction
What's the point in trying to hide it
What's point in trying to hide

We strain ourselves to the bones to see
The things we value eternally
Now what was it that you want from me
I'm not the boy that I used to be

Stop craving over hope that's
Not enough to change in his pocket
Found a spot of keeping up with things
To get the feeling the your
Nothing wasn’t worth the trade
Bet on, bet on nothing, waste your life away
I saw your silence
Your sadness was a living thing
I shot it down, a sound that didn’t ring
Like a of a guy that you couldn’t see
Tone deaf, solid beating in reality

From the sea to the city
We got golden hearts
Flower turning on the past
Time to make a mark i was dying for it
I was dying for it

I'm sorry i'm sorry
I never really doubted all that I had

We strain ourselves to the bones to see
The things we value eternally
Now what was it that you want from me
I'm not the boy that I used to be

Your veins are crimson, I long to see
The kiss inspired
So bow your head, meditate with me
And miss the world as we

I'm sorry i'm sorry
I'm sorry i'm sorry
