lyrics

I rode down the water to your road
I held down the water till it flowed
told you not to let it crack
told you not to turn your back
on you (x2)

I held down the flood until it roared
ran right through the front gate and your door
told your breath to hold right on
told your mind to carry on
for you (x2)

take me to the moon where it's not heavy on your back
let your shoulders down they're not under close range attack
look down on the world at all the pieces in the black
in you

hold onto yourself and don't let go
lost inside your mind is all you know
close your eyes count back from five
it's alright to feel alive
can you (x2)

take me to the moon where it's not heavy on your back
let your shoulders down they're not under close range attack
look down on the world and see it's nothing that you lack
specks of who we are fill up the pieces in the back
from you
