lyrics
It's calm in the water still
But I won't come to the depths to greet you
And now that I finally feel
I'll rise from the pit that will soon defeat you

It's hard not to live my life
Like it's only words
It's hard not to live my life
Like it's only words

My thoughts and I
became lost
In the city that sleeps
Bound to debt
there I lay
With my back to the wall

And now that I've come for you
this shoreline will call for the depths beneath it
My lungs filled with smoke ensue
A breath that will grasp my own fear to meet it

It's hard not to live my life
Like it's only words
It's hard not to live my life
Like it's only words

My thoughts and I
became lost
In the city that sleeps
Bound to debt
there I lay
With my back to the wall

We were holding back the tears
We were holding back the tears
For I know this life draws near
From the city we were swept to different shores

My thoughts and I
became lost
In the city that sleeps
Bound to debt
there I lay
With my back to the wall
