How Could I Know

How long must we try
Choke back on the words we chose
That part of me is taking over
Hold on to what you hope
Let go of the things you hold
That part of me is taking over
I (want to) believe this will be over eventually
And I believe this part of me is gone
And I’ve moved on
How could I know
Everything had broken down so long ago
Sit back, must we try
React to this firefight
That part of me is taking over
I (want to) believe this will be over eventually
And I believe this part of me is gone
How could I know
Everything had broken down so long ago
How could I know everything had broken down somewhere
I know I know I know I know I know
How long must we try
To react to this firefight
How long must we try
How long
How could I know
Everything had broken down so long ago
How could I know everything had broken down somewhere
I know I know I know I know I know
