Aloof as a Bard

from It's Hard to Speak Through Chattering Teeth by The Will to Survive

lyrics

We saw a light from our campfire
So we walked through the trees to see what we could find
We found ourselves at the summit
And on this mountain we found ourselves
Until I saw that you had gone without a word
Right before I'd had the chance to say

I'd have done it all for you, but we didn't follow through
We said a lot, but nothing got through
But I did it all for you, your daughter too
We said a lot, but nothing got through

You took away my faith, my faith in everything that I came here to make
All you gave me was a kingdom who's walls were destined to fall
And though it's said and done, I hope you know

That I did it all for you but we didn't follow through
We said a lot, but nothing got through
I swear I did it all for you, your daughter too
We said a lot, but nothing got through
