When I continued to run away
What kept me in your hand?
Did you ever think your flock would stray
Or that they wouldn't understand?
When you said
"Wait here, 'til I return with your brother
That was lost to the ways of the world"

This place is all too familiar! So sudden, I find myself returning to the origin, the event that started it all.
All I ever asked for was one more day. Is this it? Is this what I’m after?

…Back to the beginning, where I was sinking in the sea. Where I was fighting to stay awake, fighting the urge to succumb to the waves.

Is this what it means to be forgiven: Undeserved blessings, and a second chance
that makes time shake, and that makes lives change, when it’s only been a second in an everlasting day?

It's gone all awry. The hands on the clock never held anything but the time that I spent cursing the wind, and grabbing at the ground yelling as loud as I can, but they never spoke back. They just listened intently as I fell to my knees, grinding teeth. Oh, how I wish I could leave! Oh, how I wish I could leave with you, now!

You're gone, but are you really gone, or do you reside in the hearts of the people that you loved? And like sparks we shine, but fade so swiftly in time. So will I.

I feel your movements, but I can't hear past the noise. I feel you.

Soft sounds exit my mouth as my tongue twists and turns out, meaningless prose, but I... I'm wishing for the world, but I'll take what I can get. If I scream at the top of my lungs will you speak back?

And as we know what we were never could've last.
Pray for love, cause love is the only thing that you've never had.
So cry yourself to sleep again, and drift away.
Drift away... Get into this, realize there's no way around the truth.
You cannot stop asking yourself, who will love you now?
And as we know what we were never could've last.
And as the fog rolls in, you let go and drift away.
But how far will you fall until you fight for air?

For so long I have waited, for this sense of urgency. For as long as I can remember, I've always been the type of person to just give in.

I want to run just as fast I came in. I want to have the chance to flee the scene and to find peace. Oh, it’s so hard to find relief, with this excess sensitivity to the crimes that have been committed to others, not only me.

How long must I wait, ‘til I’m at peace again? And how long must I wait, ‘til I am whole again? Oh, how long must I wait, ‘til I’m at peace again? And how long must I wait, to see your face again?
I've got one foot in the present day, and one foot in the grave.

But, it’s your grace that gives us the second chances that we don't deserve, and that we take for granted.

We are the rot that slowly spreads,
Victims of our own arrogance.


Did we believe,
That we could really build heaven,
When all we know is just the dirt?

Get back to the center, where it all began. The struggles of a burdened man who clung to violence, and transgressed against the few who stayed, the few that remained, the few he didn't abandon or push away as he left his home in search of fool’s gold. He went west but longed for the east, and he waged wars but he longed for the peace that never made its way to ease his troubled heart.

I hope they all can see through the changing of the seasons.
We all blossom in spring and wither in winter.

When the fall strips you of all your color, what will you say as the cold eats its way through your bones? When the ice covers you completely; completely drained of all hope.

As God as my witness I will survive to see the sun again. And, wait for its light to bring its life back to my limbs.

Can we rewind
Play the past
And go back to the times
We had a positive message to spread
But times have changed
Everyone's contending for the bigger name
Your name is nothing (nothing)
Without the ones who follow you

Believe the lies you’re reading
Your eyes start to bleed
And you can’t keep telling yourself
It’s all alright
When you know that it’s not.
It’s all you know
For all you know.

Who ever told the sun to wake
And who ever told the moon
To clutch the sea?
Did the sun ever say back
Master I refuse to shine?
Did the moon ever refuse
To change the tides?

Listen, to the sound, the sound of an angry ocean below.
And, look above, the skies open up, the waves begin to groan.
They say, "It’s nothing personal, it’s what's been decided for you. It is what has to be."

If you aren't so easily swayed, I'll make my peace and sink beneath the waves. Until it all fades away to hues and shades of blues and grays.

In this cold, frigid and oh so lonely, I'm slowly moving toward the center of a hostile world, unexplored and in need of more men like me to uncover what lies at its ends.

Oh wondrous, is this surrounding, where gravity releases me, so that I may stay beneath.

Ocean blue, am I really what you seek? Another nameless sailor’s ghost, lost to the sea.

Oh, what I have I become, a prodigal son, a mouth without a word to say, a question begging for an answer?

Open my eyes, to see the crystal blue. In the depths, you were still there.

(Verse)
With us so far from home
Contrast to all the questions you will never have
I ran into you if you can never reach a different ending
I'm holding the path we don't have home

(Chorus)
Cause we are ok

For one hundred days, we set sail without as much as one distraction. But it seems that I have sank, because of my past actions, and mistakes that I have made, and attempts to evade all the consequences now being washed away.

Washed away… They said a storm was coming and, “You’ll be washed away!”

Maybe now I’ll be made clean, while I bathe in your seas as I seek out all the dreams that I once had, of a life already lived, of a gift already given, that was taken from me far too soon.

Halt! Where is your security now, when you begged for a lifeline, and were thrown an anchor instead? And, has the smallest grain of sand traveled up the hourglass? Or, has the sun ever set in the east for you, or any other man?

Oh how I've wronged you, my love
It’s come to another night
Filled with cold sweats
Lucid dreams in restless sleep
And, woe is me! Woe is me
For I've defanged the only wolves
That were ever on my side
