Seems I'm exposed,
Split in two a fault line cut right through me,
Between my heart and my feet,
There's an apathy that I can't find my way around,
But i can feel I'm getting nearer,
I know that soon i'll be delivered.
I'm overboard,
And I can't swim,
God only knows,
Why I let you in,
You and me,
And the siren songs you sing,
I'm coming home
Man I'm deep,
I'm drifting lost within myself,
Cos I'm in league,
I'm in a tryst with the daughter of the sea,
And she will have her way with me,
I'm overboard,
And I can't swim,
God only knows why I let you in,
You and me,
And the siren songs you sing,
You've taken hold over me,
The anchor in my chest,
Begs me to stop,
Rest my limbs and go to sleep,
And as the waves crash down,
My ears ring with the sound,
The promise of the deep,
So say what you mean,
OR don't say anything,
Cos all I really want,
Is a place to close my eyes,
I'm overboard,
And I can't swim,
God only knows,
Why I let you in,
You and me,
And the siren songs you sing,
So let the waves rush over me.

A continent of doubt wieghs heavy on my mind
How long can my brittle bones bend?
Before they yeild and snap
I don't wanna know
Cos I'm so scared
It's not gonna get easier than this
Cause it's too much to bear, my darling
The weight of the world
And I would carry it for you
But please don't ask me too
Cause the weight of the world
Is a burden I can't bear
Maybe it's gravity
that pulls her to my chest
Not the fear that she is the source of what little strength I've got left
I don't wanna know
Cos I'm so scared
It's not gonna get easier than this
Cause it's too much to bear, my darling
The weight of the world
And I would carry it for you
But please don't ask me too
Cause the weight of the world
Is a burden I can't bear
My horizon lies a jagged line
Oh I can clearly see
The mountains I've yet to climb
I'll get there if it kills me

When I was a kid
I filled bottles with messages of hope
now we kept clutching broken glass
cause all my questions have been answered by a flood
even those i never asked
all the storms that I've seen
are countless reasons not to believe
but i know, that as long as there will be rain
there will be clear skies after
every dance in the sky
i stood arms raised in immitation
watch you dance and fly
and now i'm ???? you
just pass me by
but i keep reaching till i get whats mine
all the storms, that I've seen
are countless reasons not to believe
but i know, that as long as there will be rain
there will be clear skies after
no matter how far I go
far i go
I want you by my side
together we'll see this through
there's silence in our lives
all the storms, that I've seen
are countless reasons not to believe
but i know, that as long as there will be rain
there will be clear skies after
there will be rain
and there will be clear skies after
there will be rain
and there will be clear skies after

Balanced, on the edge of a knife, in love with the night, so I'll ignore the cracks in the ice, and ill raise my glass, sing a toast to the end of all things baby, cos daylight won't wait for me,
oh what has become of me? Turn the lights out cos I don't want to see
I'm condemned to walk the night, and I don't care, cos in the morning light, the mirror lies, cos I'm not there
Now I'm, become destroyer of worlds, at the very least my own, so I'll sit on the tracks and I'll wait, and I'll raise my glass, sing a toast to the end of all things baby, but I'm drinking alone,
oh what has become of me? Turn the lights out cos I don't want to see
I'm condemned, to walk the night, and I don't care, cos in the morning light, the mirror lies, cos I'm not there
You, you are the sun,
And if you are the sun, you can keep me in the dark
What have I become? Horns where there were none before, so just leave me in the dark.
