Knots

'M not fishing for an answer

Just untie the knots you knead

Does it always take a stranger

To snatch you out from the deep

So helpless in the half-light

When you're not a man of faith

Wish you'd wrote it all on water

Watch it all go to waste

So help me understand why

Why you wanna go back

Still running to your past life

When there's nothing left

And when you hear the silence ring through your bones

His shadow's waiting to give up the ghost

So help me understand

Why you wanna go back

How many times did you let the devil through your door

Don't wanna test the consequence of letting go

So helpless in the half-light

When you're not a man of faith

Wish you wrote it all on water

Watch it all go to waste

So help me understand why

Why you wanna go back

Still running to your past life

When there's nothing left

And when you hear the silence ringing through your bones

His shadow's waiting to give up the ghost

So help me understand

Why you wanna go back

Don't you think it's for the best

That we don't always get what we want

Oh how easy we forget

When we could've had it all
