The Felix Culpa - Because This Is How We Speak descargar videos gratis

i would say that we saw this coming

if i thought it would change a thing

but at some point, we all stop running

some finish the race while some save their strength

and a day is coming soon when the banner of youth

will be dropped somewhere between

writing songs in our parents basement

and basing our lives on what they mean

so if this is the last time

leave it all under these lights

we've played out our lives on these stages

just to be buried with pages of songs left unsung

this is the last time

give us something to take home

a last line to sing

cause these half empty glasses

with stress cracks and fractures

can only grow so weak

before they break and spill out a dead language

that we've forgotten how to speak

and this is the last time

we'll all hang for the same crime

we buried the axe in the walls of these old village halls

just to claim that we were there

and this is the last time

(better to sink than to yield

better to lay down the shield

better to claim what we can

than be surprised when it ends

better to guess where we're going

the glass house before the throwing

better to know when to run

then face what we all become)

so raise, raise your glass to the ones

who gave their youth

so we could sing along

and this is the last time

you'll hear me apologize

i'll be that rope that you tied

'round your wrist to remind you

what idle hands have done.

and this is the last time.
