Persist Songtext
von Ebonivory

Every step of the way
Can you forget what they say?
But every moment there′s a debt left to pay
We hear them take me wrong
We suffered far too long

Your weary eyes tell me you are for life
But then you find what's keeping you under

And I mean
You′ve been asleep for far too long
It breaks my heart to watch you walk

This life has been the calm before the storm
And suffering is all that makes us whole

Every step of the way
Though weak, I won't be apart while you break down
I've been reduced to a name on a screen
Though life has done worse and I want you


So say goodbye, and you′ll feel you′re not long for life
One day you'll find what′s keeping me and you under

And I've been
I′ve been awake for far too long
It makes me sick to watch you fucking return

This life has been the calm before the storm
And suffering is all that makes us whole

This life has been the calm before the storm
And suffering is all that makes us whole
Again, it never ends
This punishment
We're keeping it inside us
Owning a question defined us
What if we′re wrong?
The urgency and misery
Are faithfully
What's keeping me in your life
