Crash the Calm - Abide

It's alright, I'm all around
Watching you tear up every inch of earth
Searching for what cannot be found
I know it hurts like a wound unmend
But there are things that happen in our life
That we can't control so we just let them happen

You're like a house
Gone up in flames
And I'm on the outside watching helplessly as you slowly turn to grey
I tried to help, but the heat was too much
When the flames grew higher, through the embers
Through the smoke and the clouds I could see our dying love

(Scream)
Don't you know that I love you
(Dream)
When you died you took my heart along with you
(Sleep)
Dig a coffin, the one that you cling to
Why do I stay here? When all that is loved will always be ruined

I'm just a duct tape ship
With no nails in my hull
But I'm stopping at nothing to get you where you need to go
With no wind in my sails and a thorn in my spine
I swear I'll get you there, I swear we're doing fine
And when the storm settles down and all the clouds turn to grey
We'll chart a better course we'll find a better way
Even if there's weather will survive the storm
Here in Nothing, Nowhere it's become our norm

(Scream)
Don't you know that I love you
(Dream)
When you died you took my heart along with you
(Sleep)
Dig a coffin, the one that you cling to
Why do I stay here? When all that is loved will always be ruined
So why should I stay here?
Let those waves crash over me

Remember that night, on a foreign shore
Looking at a stranger
Staring off at a distant shore
Thought it was you
