Water in the DessertNone of you seem to understandI'm not locked in here with you You're locked in here with me Why do I need this so badly? Is this my act's finale? It comes to me like water in death valley The abyss stares right through me Where did the last five years of my life go? Where did they go? How did I end up in this hole? Adorned in thorns and bones The child in me, overexposed My eyes, oh, my eyes And then the water dried up in the ocean And then I knew I was drowning In this world where we are grains of sand A drop of water is all we have So we savour it all Until it's... I think you've been afraid for your whole life When people looking in from the outside Impending peril, I can hear them drumming Black lungs and beaten sons I know what's coming I have never been so alone This life is yours to atone Too young to face demise Will your values see the next sunrise? Why won't you answer me? You fucking coward Get on your knees Why won't you answer me? Fucking coward Get on your knees And then the water dried up in the ocean And then I knew I was drowning And when all the hope I had was gone I knew I'd only last so long And like an anchor falling from the sky I hit the bottom Part of the dream that's due in time They're building bridges for us now Why do we think we're living a lie? The fear, the regret For lives we have left behind Not knowing what's next in time We're done running This time we're going to stand our ground No respect No hope No home We're screaming out loud We're done running This time we're going to stand our ground No respect No hope No home We're screaming out loud |
