|
The tide rolled in not a breath in sight |
|
And this town went down like the moon at night |
|
These poor rooftops only go so high |
|
The volume of our bodies is causing the waters to rise |
|
Why do we cry out only when things go wrong? |
|
How would you feel if |
|
I only sang sad songs? |
|
The gavel slams the verdict is in |
|
And the jury find you guilty for the things that you did |
|
You're scared for your life, so you turn to the man |
|
The man that holds your life in the palm of his hands |
|
And your heart starts racing like a bullet from the gun |
|
And you can feel it in your chest, it's affecting your lungs |
|
This breath that you're taking's getting harder to take |
|
Why did it take so long to wake up? |
|
Why do we cry out only |
|
When things go wrong? |
|
How would you feel if |
|
I only sang sad songs? |
|
Until nowYou have been facing |
|
Everything on your own |
|
Up till tonight |
|
Wake up and remember |
|
Where you came from |
|
To get through tonight |
|
Why do we cry out only |
|
When things go wrong? |
|
How would you feel if |
|
I only sang sad songs? |
|
Until nowYou have been facing |
|
Everything on your own |
|
Up till tonight |
|
Wake up and remember |
|
Where you came from |
|
To get through tonight |
