I fell for the bait again
A fork in the road and one never ends
and upon those stones I lay out alone to find you

And a whisper like leaves in the wind,
An air so pure it could wash away sin
A message like a stranger we take kind to


In the night it sings to me
As I fall asleep

Each breath slower than the last
A sweet, low tide recedes


We can almost hear the choir
Echoing down streets on fire
Singing,

Keep calm, restless world, this too shall pass
Are we all failures in disguise?
For the dream we brought to life,

From behind our name in lights
Our shadows cast
But will they last


It's not that I don't believe
It's just that I'm so afraid to bleed.

If we could jet stay on the mountain path, over debris
So I can breathe again,
So we can live like we lived back then

When these lakes were only puddles
And these monsters were still men
Cause we are but saddled horses

and they bet on every race
But there's contempt bred in the stallion
For the man that calls it's name!


We can almost hear the choir
Echoing down streets on fire

Singing,
Keep calm, restless world, this too shall pass.
Are we all failures in disguise

For the dream we brought to life,
From behind our name in lights
Our shadows cast

And feet don't fail me now
There's a broken lonely town
waiting somewhere down this empty road

And lungs please don't give out
Words we whispered sometimes shout
And until they're heard,

I'm never going home
