Stop Listening

we’ve been through so much
lost and gained some trust
honestly i’m just glad we still talk
nothing stays the same
no one is to blame
everyone has their own path to walk

so if you stop listening now
we can still be friends
if your eyes can see what’s killing me
i’ll need you by the end
but i’ll understand if you stop listening

we’re with you all the way
no matter what the cost
i mean unless you climb down from the cross
then we will pray for you
oh, we’ll peel back the roof
but in the end we’ll grieve a brother lost

and if you stop listening now
we’ll know we were right
'cause cash can’t buy a jealous eye
when you’ve betrayed your wife
so we’re leaving when you stop listening

we’ve all made our beds
now we must discern
where we end and where the other starts
if we can get through this
we may have a shot
at something even we can’t tear apart
