Forsaken

In and out
Flowing through my lungs
A breath can become
The path to carry one
Soul to a sum

Twisted and turned
Unlucky and cursed
Left here to get lost
Nothing to learn

Can your G-d save us
From certain debt?
I might just say
Something I don't regret
If you're leaving
I hope you stay gone
I'm lying but I mean it
Like when you told me
I was strong

You said that you felt
Like a lead role in a film
The day you met him
The day you met him

I find it all impossibly sad
That anyone feels like that
Like the cheese in the rat

But I suppose it's what we deserve
Yeah, we'll pay for this
Like we know we earned it
Yeah, it's our burden
We wear it like a cross
The house that we live in
And will never pay off

Caught the flavor of
Manhattan morning air
You can still taste it here
I guess it happens everywhere

There's little difference between
A debt and a dying dream
If you're still paying installments
On imaginary things

No, our love won't
Take back the holocaust
Turns out all you really need
Is almost everything you've lost
And I say "lost"
Like I don't know it was taken
Like you keep on praying
When you know you're forsaken

You know you're forsaken?
