6/8

You live in a world I cannot believe
You create a world I don't wanna see
And your forest's a stand of dead trees
Lost in the night
Did you ever think you'd live down the past?
You just wanna tie yourself to the mast
All your nightmares have come to you at last
At least in your mind
Learn to swim in rushing rivers
Breaking on the shore
Make your peace with broken streets
Your face turned towards the storm
Your hollow accusations no one ever hears
Your wounded sense of pride a guilty souvenir
All your protests and vacant excuses
Ring insincere
I just wanna find a car to overturn
I just wanna light a fire and watch it burn
Now we're past the point of no return
And no one is here
Learn to swim in rushing rivers
Breaking on the shore
Make your peace with broken streets
Your face turned towards the storm
You are afraid
Uneducated on where this would lead
Going on for far too long
We are sorry for the greed
Leave us in pieces and places
War-torn and wronged
In between whispers and screams
You permeate my soul
Lost between nightmares and dreams
You decimate this home
Learn to swim in rushing rivers
Breaking on the shore
Make your peace with broken streets
Your face turned towards the storm
