6/8 Lyrics

You live in a world I cannot believe

You create a world I don't want to see

And you 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 hallow accusations no one ever hears

Your wounded sense of pride, a guilty souvenir

All your protests and vacant excuses ring insincere

I just want to find a car to overturn

I just want to 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
