Tidal wave
I wish I could cross my armsAnd cross your mind 'cause I believeYou'd unfold your paper heartAnd wear it on your sleeve
All my life I wish I broke mirrorsInstead of promises'Cause all I see is a shattered conscienceStaring right back at me
I wish I had covered all my tracks completely'Cause I'm so afraidIs that the lightAt the far end of the tunnelOr just the train?
Lift your arms, only Heaven knowsWhere the danger grows and it's safe to sayThere's a bright light up aheadAnd help is on the way, help is on the way
I forget the last time I felt braveI just recall insecurity'Cause it came down like a tidal waveAnd sorrow swept over me
Depression, please cut to the chaseAnd cut a long story shortOh, please be done, how much longerCan this drama afford to run?
Fate looks sharp, severs all my tiesAnd breaks whatever doesn't bendBut sadly then, all my heavy hopesJust pull me back down again
I forget the last time I felt braveI just recall insecurity'Cause it came down like a tidal waveAnd sorrow swept over me
Then I was given grace and loveI was blind but now I can see'Cause I found a new hope from aboveAnd courage swept over me
It hurts just to wake upWhenever you're wearing thinAlone on the outsideSo tired of looking in
The end is uncertainAnd I've never been so afraidBut I don't need a telescopeTo see that there's hopeAnd that makes me feel brave
