about
The bitter moment where two lovers realise that they must turn and walk away.
lyrics
And so begins the hunt,
How does it work?
Can you ever really fail?
Too afraid to win,
To fight the fear within,
To begin
I held the flag up for you,
But you didn't come.
I took the blame for you,
You turn and run.
And so I sat and watched,
And I sang each note:
"Water will catch you when you fall,
Flood you when you fail"
And so begins the hunt,
How does it work?
Can you ever really fail?
Too afraid to win,
To fight the fear within,
To begin.
Oh, tell me, why did I ever waste my time with you?
You are so useless, held me down, so unfair.
You can try to hunt but you will never find,
It's true, you were never there, you were never prepared.
Never gave me what I need, you could never satisfy me.
Neglect is such an ugly thing.
So go on your own, try to win,
Watch what your futile hunt brings.
You'll be coming back with nothing.
And so begins the hunt,
How does it work?
Can you ever really fail?
Too afraid to win,
To fight the fear within,
To begin
