lyrics

"We were like gods"

I was leaving for some days and letting go of my old ways.
Heaven knows that we all stay too long.

Time, you know, it doesn't wait and when it does it's much too late.
You and me were meant for starting over.

The animal is twice as strong and always watching over us.
We're waiting on the changing of the guard.
Shadows where we used to go, you know that's not the only clue.
The heat that fills our bodies is enough, it's enough.

I was learning from mistakes and trying not to recreate them.
Are there any places left to go?
I'm giving it my best to change, to take my cards and rearrange.
No one knows the ace is in the hole.

The animal is twice as strong and always watching over us.
We're waiting on the changing of the guard.
Shadows where we used to go, you know that's not the only clue.
The heat that fills our bodies is enough, it's enough.

I am breaking what I will and feeling so invincible.
Ain't that something we can never be?
Will you lend a helping hand when it gets so hard to stand?
But the standing isn't everything... Is it everything?

The animal is twice as strong and always watching over us.
We're waiting on the changing of the guard.
Shadows where we used to go, you know that's not the only clue.
The heat that fills our bodies is enough, it's enough.
