Cement Lyrics by Cory Wells

The Way We Are

2019

[Verse 1]
You're a mess, I'm a wreck
It's the way we are
Drag you down 'cause I'm cement
Weighing down your heart
Let's pretend we're not upset
Try to move past these scars
Fall asleep and just forget
Never gonna get that far

[Pre-Chorus]
This silence is deafening me
Drowning out all that we need

[Chorus]
Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
To convince us we're not fading
I don't think I'm ever letting go
It's not love, but I'm still waiting

[Verse 2]
You break down, I don't sleep
Talking's just too hard
Hold your breath, we're in too deep
Sinking through the dark
Wishing we could turn back time
Try it again, I guess
Just sit back and push rewind
Never gonna fix this mess

[Pre-Chorus]
This silence is deafening me
Drowning out all that we need

[Chorus]
Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
To convince us we're not fading
I don't think I'm ever letting go
It's not love, but I'm still waiting

[Bridge]
I don't wanna drag you down again
'Cause I'm around your ankle, I'm pulling you under
Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
Can't admit that we're just fading

[Chorus]
Don't know why we put ourselves through hell
To convince us we're not fading
I don't think I'm ever letting go
It's not love, but I'm still waiting

[Outro]
You're a mess, I'm a wreck
It's the way we are
