Justification

Lyrics for Justification

We have tried and failed We have stumbled and fallen We have tried a new taste And we spit it back out We have taken a left turn When we meant to turn right We lost sight of our origins But our past never lost sight of us Lost sight of us It's not emulation - 'cause that's not this hard Not imitation - 'cause that won't take you far Not digression - 'cause I'm falling straight up It is progression - I'm not afraid to stand up I don't know what I expected But I expected it to be great I said "I'm trying my hardest" But he didn't like the tape Take a look at what you're doing And tell me I'm too late You say we're walking backwards Well, that dead horse sure can run It sure can run The truth I know I can I know I will I know - I know what I have to do And now you'll listen And I hope it won't hurt I've seen your poison You've done your worst I've seen your better And I can't believe it's true You've lost the truth That used to live inside of you
