lyrics

To learn how to succeed
You’ve got to fail at what you’re doing
To understand new information
Forget what you thought you knew

I am the feeling that you’re after
I am the calm before the warning
I am the wind that cools the embers
I am the bridge before it burns

I’d like to take on new direction
Be like a wave under the moon
I like to think I know you better
Hard to say I know you at all

You’ve got some way
It’s in the understanding
How even change
Is somehow planned
You have someway
It’s in the understanding

If in pain you can’t find laughter
If in the end you can’t see the start
Find the feeling you’re after
Neath the shell within your heart

I am sixty parts a minute
If we were really who we are
I'd be the feeling you’re after
Neath the moon beside the scars

I don’t know if I can trust you
I don’t think I ought to try
The doubt is in our history
And the truth is in the lie
