A Prayer I Haven't Tried

Are we just running out the clock? Will I be left to wonder "what have we become"? I think about it way too much I can't enjoy what I've been blessed with And it's rough We'll go from Making the other laugh every day To wishing There was room for the other to stay And giving up the weekends Stuck on a train And I'll convince you it's worth it But I don't know how much we can take August doomed us from the start 'Cause she left only a year 'Til the part You can't afford a broken heart And I knew that jumping in Would make it hard 'cause We'll go from Making the other laugh every day To wishing There was room for the other to stay And giving up the weekends Stuck on a train And I'll convince you it's worth it But I don't know how much we can take Maybe there's another star in the sky To mend this empty feeling Holding it high Maybe there's a prayer I haven't tried To put us in the same place overnight We'll go from Making the other laugh every day To wishing There was room for the other to stay And giving up the weekends Stuck on a train And I'll convince you it's worth it, Convince me it's worth it to be Picking up the pieces Pulling the weight To perpetuate the lie That we promised too late Like the puzzle fits together As long as we stay And you'll convince me it's worth it But I don't know how much we can take When will this string break? And how much can we take?
