What the Water Wants
I can be anything, except what you had Why would you want to stay worried and then Take advantage of all that you said? Why would you want to stay? And take that path again? Lost. Staring above I can be found I can be all that you saved Lost. (Keep all those words you said) Staring above Hoping that I can be found I can be all that you saved All that you saved then Lost in the photographs, of what you can fake Staring at all the things you know that you hate I know that you're the one, who severed and saved I can be all the things that want you to make me so Lost. Staring above I can be found I can be all that you saved Lost. (Keep all those words you said) Staring above Hoping that I can be found I can be all that you saved All that you saved then I am lost, a mistake Within those walls I rest I am fallen, unkept, I won't crawl Lost. (Keep all those words you said) Staring above (Hoping that) I can be found I can be all that you saved All that you saved in the end

The slow decay begins Put down the fading pen No matter how I try I stay awake, somehow The waves upon the shore whisper a fate And now it ends The breaking of the silence is opaque, for now But all the things you said thunder and shake My will to wonder How can I find my way through the open distance that is you? The wind in the air, it sings a song I know where my heart lived all along I know it's safe from tempest storms And no one can take my crown of thorns When gravity becomes too much to take, hold on Blood is heavier than water, still We wait for rain The wind in the air, it sings a song I know where my heart lived all along I know it's safe from tempest storms And no one can take my crown of thorns Something always happens inside me A temporary memory of past Moments that describe when passion leaves It's more than I could ask for The wind in the air, it sings a song I know where my heart lived all along I know it's safe from tempest storms And no one can take my crown of thorns The wind in the air, it breathes a song Telling me now where I belong Willing to face the ravenous storm That rages beneath this crown of thorns

See indifference in yourself Finding everything you say Is getting harder to explain Put your convictions on the shelf They're lingering there in the black Foes you thought you could outlast So you can hardly stand Living with the very thing That you have to know you're worth something Face to face now who's to blame? And underneath it all A lost soul hiding in the rain When mirrors break apart Break like broken hearts You're left alone there in the dark It's hard to admit those feelings still remain Light is dimming from the sun Trying hard to disappear Knowing that the threat is near Face to face now who's to blame? And underneath it all A lost soul hiding in the rain When mirrors break apart Break like broken hearts You're left alone there in the dark It's hard to admit those feelings still remain Some days move way too fast You wish somehow you could go back But for now those lines are blurred Face to face now who's to blame? And underneath it all A lost soul hiding in the rain When mirrors break apart Break like broken hearts You're left alone there in the dark It's hard to admit those feelings still remain Now that the light is gone You're holding on And hope's a dying flame Just tell yourself those feelings still remain

Through the darkened window panes A heavy-hearted scene plays out again Forget the ones you know just turn and go and walk away But, wait Take a final look around as the past fades away Forget all you've ever known, let the night become day Would you stay if it rained again? Not hide away from yesterday And be saved from the storm that rages underneath The darkest alibi Take your shelter in memories behind closed eyes For the last time you will find The waves will crash but the sun will always shine In the darkest corner there A place to hide, a place no one can share Now that you're all alone, a hollow stone A voice comes through the night Would you stay if it rained again? Not hide away from yesterday And be saved from the storm that rages underneath The darkest alibi Take your shelter in memories behind closed eyes For the last time you will find The waves will crash but the sun will always shine

From miles away, one ordinary man A modern day loner, you made it hurt Stay, I would be the first in line to die inside Oh, tried to be the last divide to lie and hide Wherever you roam, wherever you ride The stars will never leave you there under dark skies Somehow you made an underground mistake On desert plains somehow you made it worse Stay, I would be the first in line to die inside Oh, tried to be the last divide to lie and hide Wherever you roam, wherever you ride The stars will never leave you there Stay, I would be the first in line to die inside Oh, tried to be the last divide to lie and hide (Save it all, save it for the lights inside, the light behind your eyes) Wherever you roam, wherever you ride The stars will never leave you there under dark skies

It's a long way down when falling When dark is the only light Left to be broken All that you had deep inside was yearning And all that you had left was stained With burning confessions of the past Skies are blackening Shadows betray And silence a beautiful lie That hides within They can't forgive You can't forget so you run Words were hollow points to nowhere When no one was listening You were left there You know you can't feel what you have forgotten Let all that you have turn to gray It's over. You can't undo what's been done Skies are blackening Shadows betray And silence a beautiful lie That hides within They can't forgive You can't forget so you run Oh, run. So far, so very far You can't undo what has been done Skies are blackening Shadows betray And silence a beautiful lie That hides within They can't forgive You can't forget so you run

The view beneath the big oak trees The people all around I see are fading My friends and family gathering to say farewell, it's comforting Thank you all So, say goodbye The road has been sublime Don't shed a tear for me tonight I've had a life. That's good enough for me I see my childhood memories Of chasing fireflies through the weeds, so innocently One last look before I go, but to where I do not know But I'm not afraid So, this is goodbye The road has been sublime Don't shed a tear for me tonight I've had a life. That's good enough for me So, say goodbye The road has been sublime Don't shed a tear for me tonight I've had a life. That's good enough for me I've made good friends along the way And watched the sun set behind waves, so beautiful And I recall the fragrance in the air before the rain I've loved and lost and loved again I've some regrets but that's OK Not one moment would I replace with anything And I'll miss my loving family But this is the end of the road for me

Underneath the tranquil scene A hurt enough to break machines Abandoned all you felt today Left all your thoughts in disarray So take away everything You know that they don't understand Some of the places where you should Never be misunderstood Far beneath a soul that pleads Resides a heart that's cold but bleeds So heavy now you can't convey Afraid the faces will betray You walk the path alone again You know that they won't understand Not where you are, or where you stood You know that you always could⦠Wait, You can't find the words to say That everything is not okay But look how far you've come Wait, You can defy gravity The loneliness of vanity Now look what you have done

Breathing. Just enough to live What hurt you once before Will hurt you again Now you're alone But you wish that you could⦠Forget the rain. Deny the storm What the water wants is more It's dying just to fall But if that's everything You'd rather have nothing at all Sinking. Going down again You've got to swim the flood This can't be how it ends Forget the rain. Deny the storm What the water wants is more It's dying just to fall But if that's everything You'd rather have nothing at all A slow descending trace It's just a small lamenting grace You've taken all that your heart can hold inside But it all escapes you Waiting for the turning tide That you can't subdue I won't follow you down You've got to swim the flood Forget the rain. Deny the storm What the water wants is more It's dying just to fall But if that's everything You'd rather have nothing at all

You're wondering through emptied rooms Where traces of your past linger Don't sacrifice one second more Take your reprieve. Walk out the door Face away before the walls come down Embrace the change. Move on. It's over now. Just go Now the miles ahead are open wide Take comfort in the coming tide Face away before the walls come down Embrace the change. Move on. It's over now The confidence game, you took the hit When your guard was down Without a sound No ones to blame, mistakes were made And yet you took a higher road Higher road All that remains are memories Then nothingness is the final phase You are the one. You know the pain And understand that nothing comes from nothing The ebb and flow of life is strange No matter how much we have changed Now settle down, run no more Leave it behind on the killing floor Face away before the walls come down Embrace the change. Move on. It's over now. Just goâ¦
