The Great Divorce

If my name was hosea I would last the night
If there was some other way I would take it
If I could just make my beloved believe again
If divorce had a face I would break it
I see her smile but her eyes seem so distant now
I sleep beside her but we never embrace
I'm wondering. When did your heart grow so cold
Where did my family go?
Oh God my family no. How's it so simple
To create a new version of life
Forgetting me and all the dreams in the past you're walking
How can I watch my wife go
Go chase your lovers lover I know they
Won't last just don't leave
I hear him calling. These demons sift like wheat
After you've fallen. Return and strengthen me
Now the flame is within I can last the night
I've seen my life in the way and I'll take it
If I could just make my beloved believe again.
I wish divorce had a face. I could break
I watched you watch him with
That look of concealment within
Oh how I've longed for your simple desire
I see you slipping away. I saw the whole thing coming
Oh cheating heart I’m wondering
Oh, cheating heart you wander. I'll be responsible
For all of my failures and faults
I thought with us there'd never be a last time
I know I'm finished. But I've already been were you're running
I’ll look to the sky for help before I die on the inside.
This pain inside this separation breathes
You're at the edge. And I'm forgotten
If my name was hosea I would last the night
If there was some other way I would take it
If I could just make my beloved believe again
If divorce had a face I would break it. Break
That was a moment that only I could feel
And in that moment only God was real
