40 days on the ocean
A million waves in motion
We sold our hearts to the Sea
For the freedoms that we seek
A silent place with a reason
A sort of grace to believe in
I see your face when I dream
But it never looks the same
You tried 40 times to forget me
Still lookin' back to regret things
I'm livin' in the present tense
And my mind's at ease
My heart is lost on the ocean
A million trains in motion
I'm wide awake and this time
I'm gonna let it all pass by
I see my friends run away
From the weight of another day
I've been alive long enough to realize
We'll be OK

Thought about it on a Saturday
Think about it and it fades away
But it's a nice try
I was patient when you asked me to be
I see the changes that I wanted to see
And it's alright
Think about it for the second time
Hoping that the hill is easy to climb
But it won't be
Hold it in for the warmth it's been
Like the last time,
I must've had a reason to come
But either way
You took a picture of a setting sun
You took a picture of a loaded gun
It was black and white
I swam closer to the edge of the pool
I came closer to becoming the fool
And I almost died
Hold it in for the warmth it's been
Like the last time,
I must've had a reason to come
But either way
Here I am

We had it all around us
Comfort that we trust
We're thankful that you found us
Holding onto luck
Time was all around him
Silent in the sun
Thankful that she found him
Sure that he's the one
Hold it up, hold it up
This is what
We waited so long for
We traded our song for
Faces all around her
She was seein' mine
Highway signs guide her
I'm sure that she'll be fine
Hold it up, hold it up
This is what
We waited so long for
We traded our song for
We waited our lives for
We traded our knives for
I was actually awake enough
To feel my body becoming light
Sliding on the wooden floors,
And slowly, calmly, taking flight
Melody was wishin' that the
Drinks weren't over priced
Quality was something that
She always had to look at twice
Melody was thinking that she didn't wanna stay
But had the quiet feeling that she couldn't bare to say
Melody was wishing that she didn't wanna stay
But had the quiet feeling that she couldn't bare to say
We waited so long for
We traded our song for
We waited our lives for
We traded our knives for

When you were young
We sold your wisdom to the drug store
When you were told
You could never be told
Can't you see through your window
Can't you breathe in your tunnel
You were always a friend
When you were old..
You were never old
When you were told
You could never believe there was nothin' else
Don't get left by yourself
Don't get lost on the shelf
And try to confide
In somebody else
The "unbreakable cup"
It was never enough to contain your blood
