Lyrics
in the faces of the fallen
in the coldness of the day
in the silence of the morning
in the waiting of the way
awake in the morning time
waiting for someone to come and bear
the weight of what you said last evening
crushing down on me
waiting for the time to say it
waiting for the key
that fits the lock that holds this empty room closed
the prisoner is me
falling into water, I can't breathe
the water retreats
and if there comes a day
when mountains fall into the sea
there was time to choose your battles, save your honor
in spite of me
the moon controls the undertow
the water covers me
the tide moves in, the weight of water
crushing down on me
falling into water, I can't breathe
the water retreats
drowning, deeper water
become one, the water and me
in the time it takes the brain to stop breathing
I could have said I was wrong
in the time it takes the heart to stop beating
I could have reached for your hand
in the faces of the fallen
in the coldness of the day
in the silence of the morning
in the waiting of the way
falling into water, I can't breathe
the water retreats
drowning, deeper water
become one, the water and me
