Open Water

(album: Great Heights & Nosedives - 2017)

(Nature had it first)

Wake up and stare at the screen
Disbelief as the words read out another ending
And tell me all of the things that you think when we drove ourselves into depending
I don't want us to face the mess
The mirror said forget the rest
So tell me will we ever find a way
To paint the road for better days

Am I gonna stay the same
Will I ever see the day
When the thoughts inside my head are not too afraid to change
Are we gonna stay the same
I know we're gonna see the day
When our words are heard from far away
We won't let this world decay
We won't let this world decay

So tell me when the engine fails and the train derails
Will we all just fade away
Cause I know that the well dried up never had enough
So we all just bring the rain
I heard the score a thousand times before
So tell me will we ever see consistency lying on the floor

Am I gonna stay the same
Will I ever see the day
When the thoughts inside my head are not too afraid to change
Are we gonna stay the same
I know we're gonna see the day
When our words are heard from far away
We won't let this world decay

In open water we drifted deeper
We're falling faster now
In open water we drifted deeper
We're falling faster now

Am I gonna stay the same (No!)
Will I ever see the day
When the thoughts inside my head are not too afraid to change
Are we gonna stay the same
I know we're gonna see the day
When our words are heard from far away
We won't let this world decay
We won't let this world decay
