What We Once Were - The Sweeplings

There’s no way out, our backs against the wall

From somewhere down deep, overtaken like a storm

We can’t take back the words we spoke

The promises we’ve released

Oh how, oh how we lost it, laid rest to what we once were

Change is sure to come, now that everything’s gone wrong

A plea for how it was, before we were overcome

We can’t pull back what’s overboard

Sink into the black beneath

Oh how, oh how we lost it, laid rest to what we once were (2x)

All these walls are closing in

Borrowed time has found an end

Every piece falls to the wind, to the wind

Oh how, oh how we lost it, laid rest to what we once were (3x)
