Lyrics
Here
We lay
And I've never felt
More afraid
The touch of your hand
On my face
Clinging to life
Slipping away
Come
Be brave
They're here to play God
You're here to be saved
Pacing the hall
To replay
How could I have known
I'd lead you astray?
And now we all pray
Holding our breath, we dive underneath
Alone and betrayed
Screaming "Why,
When it should have been me?"
I see it now, the final twist
I'm learning how in pride exists
A creature that swallows you whole
As I watch such a beautiful soul
Fading to grey
Stone-
Silent
Guarding so close
Breathing cement
Down to the wire
Sirens
A moment so slow
I can't comprehend
Here
We lay
And I've never felt
More afraid
