"Faithfully Remain" lyrics - BEN HARPER

I learned to say goodbye
To say goodbye too young
I learned to duck from words
Like bullets from a gun

How long can you pray
How long can you pray
And still not see a change?
I, I faithfully remain
I faithfully remain

Some things, some things
You have to let be lost
Some battles, some battles
You have to leave unfought

Then the truth just wastes away
In all we dare not say
And in all we can't explain
But I, I faithfully remain
I faithfully remain

Now I'm afraid, once again
Once again it has come to this
When it all goes dark, nothing stays the same
And now, I'm only what I miss

And my memories, they turn to tears
Oh, they turn to fire blood and pain
And I, I faithfully remain
I faithfully remain
And I, I faithfully remain
I faithfully remain
I faithfully remain
