lyrics

Shallow seas I see you watching me. Out of focus in slow motion passing right through me. Please don't let me make a fool of my history, scattered among men so much stronger than me.

But don't wait until your hands are shaking to face the way the waves are breaking. But In time I guess we learn to fake it, and pretend were not spent like all our time and patience.

To find the man that forced your hand you simply must find a mirror. They say it takes a cold winter to make you a winner. But you cant have one without the other, no fall without summer, but I refuse to run in place for the sake of "moving forward".

Piece of mind I want to feel you next to me. Perpetual motion for the moment centers me. But the devils in the details and the diamond rings. Saints and ghosts are both still dead to me.

But don't wait until your hands are shaking to face the way the waves are breaking. But In time I guess we learn to fake it, and pretend your not spent like all your time and patience.
