[Verse:]
We started like children
Lost in the building by the wall
Hope lost to fear
And nothing was clear when lost it all
[Chorus:]
This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside
[Verse:]
We were so cautious
Guarding the locksets viciously
I’m never breathing
Tender like ribbons obviously
[Chorus:]
This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside
[Verse:]
I am too shy to cry
You gave her one kind to provoke
Even with balance
Losing the hope with you again
[Chorus:]
This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside
[Verse:]
His words are like sharp knives
Reading on my rights every time
Crying to our son
I was just so wrong every time
[Chorus:]
This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside
