wave
Breach of Trust Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kick started in a mad burst of passion like a savored glance
Bliss parting from the freshly broken hearted and
There's lessons to take from this
Reach back into the past for the answers and remember old words

Slipped out in a whisper to distraction and I'm swept away
Missed out on the embrace of the connection and it?s clear now the only way
Reach back into the depths feel the presence now the search is over
Restarted from a place where the water and the vision flows
And it helps to know

You'll be the first out if you can say goodbye and wave
I'm watching you fall down until there's nothing left to save
You'll be the first out if you can say goodbye and wave
Offer you every breath but now you're slipping away

You give me everything that's beautiful and true
You will find that there is something wrong with me
But it?s not you

You'll be the first out if you can say goodbye and wave
I'm watching you fall down until there's nothing left to save




You'll be the first out if you can say goodbye and wave
Offer you every breath but now you're slipping away
