Final Product

You and me, we’re all we’ve got,
Watching everyone we love falsify their thoughts.

Tracing back the merciless months,
I know ‘em like the back of my hand-
The unbearable desolation we tested firsthand.

There’s diamonds in the dirtiest places,
And stars in the blackest skies,
Devastated outcomes revealing the mightiest ties.

It’s been a long time getting up from such,
Testing ourselves and everyone we see,
Challenging them to disagree,

With what we’ve crafted of an old friendship,
Sending them sailing on a distant guilt trip.

A thousand praises I’m indebted to you,
You’re the greatest thing to ever happen upon me,
All the kept promises you’ve forced me to see.

The road’s obstructed with opposing declarations,
But it’s so bright that I can see through the breaks,
And let me tell you it’s beautiful despite the mistakes.

We’ll never have a place here,
Still lost our head in the clouds never daring to come down,
Outliving them all, now the talk of the town.

We’ve raised and dragged each other this far,
Breaking and scraping to get where we are.

The way I see it we’ll never look back,
And if we do it’ll be the slightest peek,
Only to recall our great triumph streak.
