lyrics

so shocked
so surprised
when God didn't save us
when another chance, it wasn't
supplied

I tried
I tried..
tried so hard to see things
through my battered and baffled eyes

hosting my dreams
mostly shades of gray
but a few frames
they remain fluorescent
hosting my dreams
most seem to fade away
but a few frames
they remain fluorescent

I tried..
oh God, how I tried
tried so hard to see things
through my battered and baffled eyes

what's beautiful can not live
what's awful can't always die
brave men can't always save men
and cowards can't always hide

there we were dressed in cemetery black
and searching for a corpse to rescue
when you love something and it's never coming back
when you love something

no longer shocked
and I'm no longer surprised by..
not God, nor I could save us
not God, nor I

when you love something and it's never coming back
when you love something
when you've lost something
when you love something
