lyrics

Home and heart is all that's left
The swirling dust, an empty nest
A dreaming mind that never rests
We see it now

Addicted to another mind
Affirmations hard to find
What's mine is yours, what's yours is mine
We need you

I could scream about the tide
But you would never see it coming
Reason cast aside
To close the great divide you're running
Hold on tight

You learned your lesson long ago
Funny how it doesn't show
Just one more time you'll fail to grow
We hoped you would

A conversation you and me
Words drowned out by rain and sea
So we pretend we cannot hear the reasons you just disappeared
A moral absentee - nothing's guaranteed

I could scream about the tide
But you would never see it coming
Reason cast aside
To close the great divide you're running

Locking all the doors
Always keeping score
Drowning and unsatisfied
On and on we go
Overwhelmed and overgrown
Hidden from the world outside

We couldn't see the signs
We crossed the borderline
Protection isn't free the way it used to be
Now we're stumbling along
A clumsy paragon unprepared for where we're rushing

I could scream about the tide
But you would never see it coming
Reason cast aside
To close the great divide you're running
Hold on tight
