Through keeping strong and fighting on I'll be the best that I can be.
We'll fight our cause, we'll win our wars, we'll be a pillar to you.
We are the sea and they're wrong if they think they can catch me.
We are the sea and they're wrong if they think they can catch me.
Let the rain pour,
The sun will soar into the sky.
I'll stand alone,
I am invincible.
Drop!
I spent so many years waiting for your boat, it takes its toll on the spirit standing on the edge of broken shores.
I am the tide that will carry you home to me, man overboard.
We are the lost among the depths and I'll walk again (walk again)
It stands to reason that our woe is what holds us back.
But what use is treading water for someone else's skin?
I am the reason you're still on your fucking feet, stand next to me!
As fortune favours us then we become the brave, if you're not with us then you're only in our way.
I am the sea and you're wrong if you think you can catch me
I'll watch you drown

You!
I'll show you what it feels like just to be alone.
I'll make you wish that you never fell short!
Why do you stand in the way of me trying to achieve and become what I want to be?
We're meant to be in this together but you're making it hard for me to trust you.
This train is headed straight for you, stay the fuck out my way.
This is your final chance so move right now!
I'm just a puppet with no free will, I get manipulated and aggravated for your entertainment.
I'm just a puppet come take me for a spin and if you don't like what you see you can put me straight back down.
GET THE FUCK UP!
I know I'm not the first to feel like this, it seems to be a common theme.
We've had enough, lets set the score,
Not like it's never happened before.
We'll hold our ground,
We'll make you pay for disregarding our aspirations and our dreams,
We aren't as weak as we may seem
We pour our hearts and our souls into this,
We'll make you pay!
So stay the fuck out my way.
This is your final chance so move right now!
I'm just a puppet with no free will, I get manipulated and aggravated for your entertainment.
I'm just a puppet come take me for a spin...
I'M JUST A PUPPET A SLAVE TO THE STRINGS!
I'll cut these strings and you'll see me walk away from this.
This train is headed straight for you, stay the fuck out my way.
This is your final chance so move right now!
I'm just a puppet with no free will, I get manipulated and aggravated for your entertainment.
I'm just a puppet come take me for a spin and if you don't like what you see you can put me straight back down (STRAIGHT BACK DOWN)
STAY THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY!

Who are we without our loved ones?
We are the emptiest of men, we are the emptiest.
I am not what your lies would call a fortunate one,
But everything I have achieved It wasn't earned so easily.
Running, running scared,
To regret is to surrender,
Always ready to give in.
Burning in the rain,
Always waiting for another chance to start again.
SUFFER!
So cut your losses and bury them with mine,
This is what we've been waiting for, for all of our lives.
I can't stand another second in this moral disgrace,
So cut your losses, use your memories and throw it all away
I can see it now, we're falling faster and I don't know where we end
I can't see it now, we're falling downward and I don't know...
Who are we without our loved ones?
We are the emptiest of men, we are the emptiest, the emptiest of us!
(I see the failure in your eyes)
And now I know just how it feels to let you down.
LET THEM EAT CAKE!
So fill your fucking face,
You've taken everything you want and left an empty plate
I won't be left of victim of chance,
This is my understanding of what we had.
Who are we without our loved ones?
We are the emptiest of men, we are the emptiest, the emptiest of us!
(I see the failure in your eyes)
And now I know just how it feels to let you down.

Set In Sand

Words so soft, they melt away my walls,
I built them years ago with hope they'd never fall.
Always so overwhelmed yet over composed.
You are the oxygen that feeds my lungs
And I know it takes a while to breathe in.
When will you learn?
Those pages that you still turn
Hold no relevance at all
That makes me confused is that you live by the rules of a book that needs burning.
You are the oxygen that fills my lungs
I know it takes a while to breathe in.
So breathe in, for me.
When will you learn?
Those pages that you still turn
Hold no relevance at all
That makes me confused Is that you live by the rules of a book that needs burning.
I've never been so afraid of losing someone who makes this so much easier!
And I miss you so much
The way we are is so alien but it's part of growing up.
Our time is now, this is part of the process
When will you learn?
You are the oxygen
I know it takes a while
Always so sure, self collected
Always so sure, every time
Tell me what is life if we just follow along?
Living by a system fundamentally wrong.
We ignite a change if we can unite as one.
But let's not think the world will change from words in a song.
