True North
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If faith is only a luxury
It's one that I can't afford
So I'll take and I'll take and I'll blame all these problems on fate
I never thought this was permanent
I threw my head to the floor
As the dust was settling I lost track of your heart
But I can't believe you're surprised
When faced with my arrogance
Faced with my habit for hating myself
For hating myself
So grab a hold of your innocence
And hold it close to your chest
As each condition worsens slowly
They'll try to say its for the best
It takes you hours of ignorance
To get me back to your pace
If there's a problem with my choices
Well, you can say it to my face
But I can't believe you're surprised
When faced with my arrogance
Faced with my habits for hating myself
And chasing the sky
You lost respect for
The things I let you know about me
About me
I've found bittersweet
Built into the floorboards that sit below my feet
And I see tired folks around me everywhere I look
The chances that they never took
But I can't believe you're surprised
When faced with my arrogance
Faced with my habit for hating myself
You lost respect for
The things I let you know about me
About me
And I've found bittersweet built into the floorboards
That sit below my feet
And I've found bittersweet built into the floorboards
The floorboards
(Cause you said: I'll be there whenever you feel scared)
(So where the hell were you last winter?)
(Where the hell were you last winter?)
(You lost respect for the things I let you know about me
About me)
