|
I am all alone; your words have never brought me peace |
|
They rain down upon my head and destroy everything |
|
With weary eyes I stare at the sea |
|
In the distance I hear you call out for me |
|
I am so tired of running away |
|
Only to come back right where I had buried this with my hands |
|
Still you tell me that I can be trusted with a burden that I never wanted |
|
No matter how I try to push you away I still hear you call out to me |
|
I'm not the better man I'm called to be |
|
Why can't I escape? You pull me under the waves. |
|
I'm the one who made this sea |
|
It's taken everything from me |
|
Still you try to sing me to sleep. |
|
But I buried this with my hands. |
|
No matter what I try I keep coming back. |
|
There were days that I asked for this to change, |
|
But there was a fear inside of me |
|
A fear that made me question who I am |
|
And why I'm capable of such horrible things |
|
And every single promise that you whispered in my ear, |
|
That fear just kept growing until it consumed me. |
|
But I let that fear go, and I can see who you are. |
|
Your words gave me nothing |
|
I've been running away for too long; I'm not running anymore |
|
I will stand my ground and scream out loud |
|
My heart won't be yours. |
|
So I buried this with my hands. |
|
And no matter what you try I won't be coming back. |
|
I'm not the better man I'm called to be |
|
Why can't I escape? You pull me under the waves. |
|
I'm the one who made this sea |
|
It's taken everything from me |
|
And no matter what you try you won't sing me to sleep. |
