lyrics

Between you and me is where
I’ve learned to forgive myself
Beneath all these clothes I wear
Is a thief of forgotten wealth

I know I am the one for whom they dismiss
I know I’ll see the son as if I’m Dismas
Yet I’ll cast all I lust aside
If at long last you lead the tide

And carry us

WHEN
All that's left is everything we said we could be
Take all that I've written mixed in the paints
I found my home in this

And the waves come crashing in, despite the tides
Life isn’t easy when used to the pain
I found my home in this

Go see it how you want it, yet I only picture petals
Falling from the heavens while rounding up our devils

I am the way
I am the wave
Coming down now
All around now

Gasps and echoes
Ring on queue
No funeral
That inferno will do

THE STRUCTURES YOU BUILT
THAT SURROUND YOUR LIFE

DO THEY MAKE YOU FEEL SAFE
WHEN YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES

WHEN IT ALL COMES CRASHING DOWN
WHO WILL SAVE YOU NOW ~

When all that's left is everything we said we could be
I found my home in this
And the waves come crashing in, despite the tides

I FOUND MY HOME IN THIS

All that's left is everything we said we could be
I found my home in this
And the waves come crashing in, despite the tides
I found my home in this
