⢠Nothing Crushes Us...
Does that mean nothing to you now? â¢
________________________________
It started one hot, sunny day
It still feels like it was yesterday
I took first place
Beat you at your own race
The friendship we shared
Was nothing like the cross I now bear
You held me tight every other night
What was so wrong felt so right
I thought it could've been real
Before my fate had been sealed
They said it was my fault
That I had locked myself in the vault
The tears that rolled in
Was a product of my own sins
I ripped us apart
Broke both our hearts
I cannot be strong for you now
You've let me down
You promised you'd never leave me
But every time you deceived me
We took turns taking the fall
And I tried so hard to stand tall
I couldn't take it anymore
You closed down our store
Where I shopped everyday
For hope, a place to pray
But whatever happens to me and you
Happens to our kingdom too
We've dyed our friendship red
We've left our own world dead
Our prince is left between us
He simply can't believe us
What happens to it now?
The place we wore our crowns?
The hierarchy we proclaimed
We're the only ones to be blamed
The Dark Master didn't overtake us
Didn't make even a little fuss
He won without even trying
We left each other dying
We spent together everyday
Up in the treehouse we looked at our way
All that is gone now
I still can't see how
All this time we spent together
We created this stormy weather
I'm sorry if I've ever made you cry
I'm sorry if I ever told you lies
But now I know the truth
You left me alone under your roof
That you're never coming back
You just left me out in the past
That they were wrong to be mean
But they were right about me
That this is all my doing
I had this storm just brewing
That maybe I asked to be hit
I blew out the light that we lit
I will forever miss
Every single kiss
Every moment that we shared
All the times when you cared
That hurting you was my mistake
A simple act you could not take
I added to all the pain
Knowing you already lived in vain
I'm sorry that I left you to dry
But I guess now that this is goodbye
Thank you for the magic we made
The enemies we slayed
The memories we made
The horribly sharp blade
The kingdom we shared
The crosses we beared
The crowns we wore
The promises we swore
The loyalty we showed
The chariots we rode
That nothing crushes us
Nothing left us in the dust
Thank you for the things you've done,
The races we won
The songs we sung
The bells we wrung
The pictures we hung
The breath in our lungs
The strings we've strung
Thank you for our kingdom
Our power, our imaginations
Thanks for keeping your mind wide open
But most importantly thank you..
Thank you for T E R A B I T H I A <3
