Here I've been going over reasons
And you keep looking over my shoulder
Hold me now, hold me now to these promises I haven't made
Time will tell, time will tell just how much you'll act on what you've said

Either way
My mind's been made up for me
Either way
It's wearing me thin because

Even when
Resisting instinctively
Even then
I find myself broken and I'm kneeling, defeated

I've been exhausted for too long, wide open
So listen when you keep changing, when you keep changing
My blood has a beat that's running, it's running, it's running, it's running out
My blood has a beat that's running, it's running, it's running, it's running out
Our blood has a beat that's running out, out

Either way
We're threating this carelessly
Either way
It's wearing me thin because

Even when
I'm resisting instinctively
Even then
I find myself broken and I'm kneeling, defeated

I'm too exhausted for the long haul
And I'm kneeling defeated
I'm too exhausted for the long haul
And I'm kneeling defeated

I'm too exhausted for the long haul
And I'm kneeling defeated, defeated
I'm kneeling, I'm kneeling, kneeling defeated
