lyrics

You have always been the best of all
You would always be the last to fall
But when the pushing really comes to shove
Will it be you

It's like it never got to run its course
What is the consequence of doing like we did
I never like to win by using force
But you can always find a way to blow the lid

I never gave it much attention
I never gave as much as any of us could

You'll be the first and not the last of us
You'll be the flood that's so disasterous
You'll be the wolf that's coming after us

You have always been the best of all
You would always be the last to fall
But when the pushing really comes to shove
Will it be you

Everytime you turn and walk away
I feel like I will never ever walk again
We're ruled by the impulses in our brain
When just a little patience would help us transcend

We could need an intervention
We could need whatever we might need to live

You'll be the first and not the last of us
You'll be the flood that's so disasterous
You'll be the wolf that's coming after us

If you believe then I believe in you
If you must go I won't be keeping you
What you desire I will want it too

If I'm the ocean you will stay afloat
If I'm the ground you'll surely be the road
If I'm the sky your rocket will explode

The love you make exceeds the love you take
You're what is genuine when all is fake
Well, isn't that enough for heaven's sake!
