lyrics

My heart breaks for you.

As you're drowning in a sea of loneliness-
(I watched as your tears flooded the street with sorrow)
You're cut and covered by false concern
hiding apathetic sympathies.

Look and you will find.
Seek and you will be given life again.

Moving on has never been so hard.
You try to rebuild but you fall apart
(and there's no understanding).
Fractured sky above and these tides below.
You watched him drown in the undertow
(and there's no understanding).

Sorrow puts his mask on you; you project a distorted façade
(I watched as strangers prod at your petrified skin).
The earth crumbles, breaks away beneath your feet
(you can't come to terms with what you've lost).

There's a war inside, fueled by feelings you despise.
Standing at the edge of life, this void can't be satisfied.

And I can't find reason to take another step.
Everything has fallen apart, and now I'm asking what's left.
I've been trying to make use of my thoughts-
sorting, collecting, laying them all out. I can't find a pattern here,
but what I have found is that there is pain in others.
We are all broken and bound together.
I wasn't built to bear these burdens alone, and I've spent so much of my life searching for a home.
But I've learned there is a promise in my bones.
We are placed with purpose. Don't believe that you are worthless.

Hope will return; your burdens will be lifted. The sea will be put at ease.

And I've had a death wish, but I'll keep this candle burning.
We've found a way to keep at bay the tides that bring us to our knees.

Suppress hate and embrace his love.
