Lyrics Sweet Resistance - Civil Twilight

Sweet Resistance

We can’t grow without getting old
We can’t purchase bravery with gold
All of the dreams that we face
Before the morning glow
Need darkness before they show
Comfort is overrated
Give me something faded
I’ve spent my life asleep
I want sweet resistance
I spent the night outside your door in the darkest evening
And in the morning you pushed me away and gave me no reason
But all of the ways that you run
All of the ways that you keep it going
I can’t get enough
Cause when all is said and done
You can lay me down on a bed of sun
And I will accept my fate
As I pass through that gate
And all of the reasons why I felt alive in the first place
Will be in the next age
As I turn that page
Into another beautiful stage
Of sweet resistance
Comfort is overrated
Giving me something faded
